ATOSS has announced a long-term dividend policy for the years to come. The company plans to ensure that shareholders participate in the success of the company, with between 30 and 50 % of annual net income being set aside for distribution as a dividend. Besides the opportunity of benefiting from a rising share price, shareholders can thus also look forward to the prospect of a dependable dividend yield. ATOSS Software AG will draw attention to the relevant details once again in advance of the dividend outpayment.
