Ignacio Galán takes part in Iberdrola’s Shareholders’ Day in Bilbao

Iberdrola’s Executive Chairman, Ignacio Galán, took part in the latest edition of the Iberdrola Shareholders’ Conference, held at the company’s headquarters, Torre Iberdrola (Bilbao), as part of a series of meetings being held in various cities ahead of the General Shareholders’ Meeting scheduled for this coming Friday, 29 May.

The event in the capital of Biscay, which ran throughout the day and was attended by nearly a thousand shareholders, featured the participation of the Group’s Executive Chairman, Ignacio Galán, and other company executives.

During the meeting, shareholders gained first-hand insight into the key aspects of the transformation the Group has undergone over the last 25 years, during which it has become Europe’s leading electricity company and one of the two largest in the world by market capitalisation (€135 billion).

They also received a detailed overview of the key figures in its Strategic Plan up to 2028 and the strong performance recorded in the 2025 financial year.

Following the success of recent years, the Group has tripled the number of cities in which these meetings are taking place to reinforce its commitment to shareholder engagement and to fostering a close relationship with them based on active listening.

The Shareholders’ Days have also been held in Madrid, Valencia, Zaragoza, Pamplona and San Sebastián, bringing together a total of over 2,000 shareholders.
 

‘125 Light Years’ Exhibition

Attendees at the event were also able to view the ‘125 Light Years’ photography exhibition, which offers a visual journey through the company’s history and present.

The initiative, which forms part of the programme of cultural and musical activities organised by the company to celebrate its centenary, arrives in Bilbao after visiting Valencia, Zaragoza, Pamplona, San Sebastián and Madrid. It thus arrives in the capital of Bizkaia with a special purpose: to pay tribute to the city where it was founded and to express gratitude for the role it has played in its growth over more than a century.

Closer ties with shareholders and more incentives to participate

The AGM will be held with the option of attending in person or remotely, and the company has made extensive facilities available to its shareholders to participate remotely prior to the meeting via the corporate website, the shareholder helpline, instant messaging, email and postal voting. A major advantage is that the proxy forms consolidate all the holder’s shares – regardless of where they are held. This simplifies and facilitates participation, whilst offering greater security by including a QR code and an access code.

Iberdrola is thus reinforcing the open, accessible and sustainable AGM model that the company has been developing for years, which also includes channels for ongoing dialogue with shareholders and investors, such as the Shareholder Office, the Investor Relations Office and the Virtual Shareholder Assistant.

As part of the agenda for the General Shareholders’ Meeting, and in line with its commitment to shareholder remuneration, the Board of Directors is proposing a supplementary dividend of €0.427 per share, in addition to the €0.253 per share already paid on 2 February as an interim dividend. Iberdrola will thus allocate €4.5 billion to dividends for the 2025 financial year.

Furthermore, Iberdrola proposes to distribute a participation dividend of €1 gross for every 200 shares, subject to the General Meeting achieving a quorum of 70% of the share capital.
