MTU Aero Engines AG proposes increased dividend of €2.30

Munich, February 27, 2018 – The Supervisory Board of MTU Aero Engines AG today accepted the Executive Board’s proposal to raise the company’s dividend to €2.30 per share. This proposal, which represents an increase of 40 euro cents, or 21%, compared with the previous year’s dividend, will be presented to the voting members of the Annual General Meeting on April 11, 2018.

“The proposed dividend increase takes account of the sustained positive development of business, with MTU once again posting record results for the financial year 2017.
