5. Board of Directors proposal
The net income for the fiscal year 2023 amounted to ARS 148,043,845, while as of December 31, 2022, retained accumulated income (loss) amounted to ARS 148,019,840. The Board of Directors proposes to allocate ARS 7,402,192 to the Statutory reserve. In addition, it proposed to assign the remaining balance of the retained accumulated income to increase the Optional Reserve for the payment of dividends based on the evolution of the Company's financial position and the Dividends Payment Policy in force, and to delegate on the Company's Board of Directors its partial or total reversal for the payment of dividends and the determination of the opportunity, currency, terms and other terms and conditions for payment, in accordance with the delegation agreed at the Shareholders' Meeting.
6. Controlling shareholding
As a consequence of the merger between Central Puerto S.A., in its capacity as parent company and Operating S.A. ("OPER"), Hidroneuquén S.A. ("HNQ") and Sociedad Argentina de Energía S.A. ("SADESA"), all in their capacity as acquired companies and, as a consequence of the corresponding acquired companies' shares swap, none of the shareholders of Central Puerto S.A. holds a controlling interest.
Finally, it is important to highlight the fact that share capital is under public offering and it is listed in the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange ("BCBA") and; since February 2, 2018, in the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). Therefore, shareholding may experience variations, which the company may not be aware of.
Yours sincerely, | ||
Leonardo Marinaro Head of Market Relations CENTRAL PUERTO S.A. |
