Ringmetall SE (ISIN: DE000A3E5E55), a leading international specialist supplier in the packaging industry, held its Annual General Meeting in virtual form in Munich on June 16th. At the time of the vote, 75.94 percent of the company's share capital of EUR 29,069,040.00 was represented, up from 70.7 percent in the previous year.
Against the backdrop of a persistently challenging economic environment, the company increased its consolidated revenue by 7.3 percent to EUR 187.7 million in the 2025 financial year, mainly due to acquisitions made in the previous year and in the current financial year. EBITDA was EUR 23.0 million, 3.1 percent below the previous year's figure of EUR 23.7 million, reflecting a one-off effect included in the previous year, the weak US dollar and subdued bag-in-box business.
Due to the overall solid development of the company, the Annual General Meeting voted in favour of a dividend payment of EUR 0.10 per outstanding share, unchanged from the previous year. In addition to regular agenda items, the creation of new authorized capital in 2026 for cash and non-cash capital increases with the option of excluding subscription rights was approved. Existing authorized capitals for 2018 and 2021 were abolished, and the Articles of Association were amended accordingly.
The percentage approval of the agenda items was high: Agenda item 2 received 99.90 percent approval, item 3a 98.29 percent, item 3b 97.80 percent, item 4 98.61 percent, item 5 99.90 percent, item 6 92.07 percent, and item 7 95.23 percent.
"2025 was a year of significant strategic steps for us, especially in the Liner business unit, which we have significantly strengthened through several acquisitions," said Christoph Petri, CEO of Ringmetall SE. "We will continue on this path in 2026. Even though the market environment remains challenging, we remain confident about the further development."
