A healthy balance sheet structure, strong operating cash flows, and very low interest-bearing debt mean that we are well prepared for further organic growth, as well as potential acquisitions. At the same time, we are able to balance business expansion and increased working capital needs with dividend payments, in line with the dividend policy adopted by the Management Board – said Grzegorz Ochędzan, Vice President of the Management Board for Finance at AB S.A.
