Dividend paid per share DKK 17 (total for 2006 DKK 33 DKK).
Dividend per share is calculated as the total dividend proposed by the Supervisory Board after the end of the financial year divided by the average number of shares 67,648,000. The dividend is not paid until approved by the shareholders at the annual general meeting of the subsequent year.
Tryg Vesta Forsikring, the Norwegian branch of TrygVesta Forsikring A/S, has in its branch financial statements included provisions for contingency funds in the amount of NOK 2,564m (2006: NOK 2,251m) under provisions for insurance contracts.
In TrygVesta Forsikring A/S, these provisions, due to their nature as additional provisions, are included in shareholders' equity (retained earnings), net of deferred tax. TrygVesta Forsikring A/S' option to pay dividend to TrygVesta A/S is influenced by this amount. The dividend payment is also affected by a contingency fund provision of DKK 670m, which is included in shareholders’ equity in TrygVesta Forsikring A/S.
TrygVesta Garantiforsikring has a similar contingency amounting to DKK 139m, which is also included in the company’s shareholders’ equity.
