Fresenius Medical Care shareholders approve simplification of capital structure and 16th consecutive dividend increase

Fresenius Medical Care, the world’s largest provider of dialysis products and services, will simplify the company’s capital structure. At the annual general meeting in Frankfurt today, a large shareholder majority of 99.97% approved the mandatory conversion of preference shares into ordinary shares on a 1:1 basis, as recommended by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board. A separate meeting of preference shareholders also approved the proposal, with a 99.99% majority. Preference shares currently represent about 1.3% of the company’s total share capital.

With a large majority of 99.86%, shareholders approved Fresenius Medical Care’s 16th consecutive dividend increase. The dividend will be raised to €0.75 from €0.69 per ordinary share, and to €0.77 from €0.71 per preference share.

Rice Powell, chief executive officer of Fresenius Medical Care, confirmed the full-year 2013 outlook. The company expects revenue to grow by more than 6% to over $14.6 billion this year, with net income attributable to shareholders of Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA expected to be between $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion, an increase of between 5% and 15% from 2012.(1)

“Fresenius Medical Care has retained its global leadership position, and we continue to shape the future of the dialysis industry in a market that is expected to grow at 4% per annum in constant currency to 100 billion U.S. in 2020,” Rice Powell told shareholders. “Our focus is always — and will always be - on superior quality in both products and services. We have the ability to grow through the expansion of our clinic network and to grow by expanding our product portfolio and adding new services. We think our business model of vertical integration will be advantageous for the future developments in this industry.”

The annual general meeting was the first under the leadership of Rice Powell. He succeeded Dr. Ben Lipps on January 1, 2013.

A shareholder majority of over 99% approved the actions of both the Management and Supervisory Boards in 2012.

At the annual general meeting, 73.71% of the subscribed capital was represented. Only ordinary shareholders were entitled to vote.

Fresenius Medical Care is the world’s largest integrated provider of products and services for individuals undergoing dialysis because of chronic kidney failure, a condition that affects more than 2.3 million individuals worldwide. Through its network of 3,180 dialysis clinics in North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia-Pacific and Africa, Fresenius Medical Care provides dialysis treatment to 261,648 patients around the globe. Fresenius Medical Care is also the world’s leading provider of dialysis products such as hemodialysis machines, dialyzers and related disposable products.
