Thomas Oehen-Bühlmann was elected as a new member of the board of directors. Thomas Oehen succeeds Peter Bühlmann, who didn’t stand for re-election. The re-election of all other members of the board of directors was approved by the shareholders.
The shareholders also approved the proposed dividend of SFr2.60, payable minus 35% withholding tax on 25 May 2009.
Emmi’s outgoing chairman of the board of directors, Fritz Wyss, confirmed the overall positive performance in the first quarter of this year to the Shareholders’ Meeting. “The start of 2009 has been successful,” he said. “I firmly believe that we’ll be able to maintain sales at last year’s levels and achieve a net profit margin of over 2% again this year.”
