The impact of the new 3% tax on dividends has already had an impact.
We have compensated for the drop in margin to maintain our 2011 profit
level,
thanks to the good decisions made by the subsidiary managers and the commitment
of their teams.
Dividend 3.15 euros per share + 3.3%
Faithful to its distribution policy, the board of directors will suggest a
dividend of 3.15 euros per share to the Annual General Meeting, up 3.3%
(compared to 3.05 euros dividend paid in 2012, adjusted by the nominal
division). Payment will be from 25/04/2013 (detachment 22/04/2013).
Annual General Meeting
It will be held on April 8(th), 2013 at 5PM at the Congress Centre, Cité
Internationale de Lyon, 50 Quai Charles de Gaulle at Lyon 6.
Prospects
We can only rely on ourselves to continue our development over the coming years,
since the market will certainly not do it for us. For example, we know that the
19.6% drop in new housing starts in 2012 in France will have a direct impact of
around 13% on our business. Furthermore, the first quarter of 2013 will be
particularly delicate, since at end March 2012, we reported an exceptional jump
of 18% in turnover.
We will therefore continue to explore new territories, new product ranges and
new customers, with a constant preference for organic growth, considered safer
and less costly.
