Luxembourg, February 26, 2025 -- In line with the press release published on January 14, 2025, the Board of Directors of Millicom International Cellular S.A. ("Millicom") approved the interim dividend of $0.75 per share to be paid on April 15, 2025 (the "Payment Date"). Other important dates and information relating to the Interim Dividend are as follows:
-- Interim Dividend Record Date: the Interim Dividend will be paid to
shareholders who are registered in the U.S. with Broadridge on April 8,
2025, at 23.59 CET;
-- Ex-dividend Date: the last trading day on which shares acquired will be
eligible to receive the Interim Dividend payment, would be April 8, 2025;
-- Currency: the Interim Dividends will be paid in U.S. dollars;
-- Payment Date: holders of Millcom shares will be paid in accordance with
the applicable procedures of Broadridge and the Depository Trust Company
("DTC") on April 15, 2025.
The Company intends to file a delisting application with Nasdaq Stockholm on March 3, 2025, which will result in the SDR program being terminated. The last day of trading for SDRs is estimated to be on or around March 17, 2025. Therefore, it is expected that only holders of common shares on the Interim Dividend Record Date will receive the Interim Dividend paid on April 15, 2025.
As regards certain tax aspects, Millicom can currently inform investors as follows. In accordance with Luxembourg income tax law, the payment of the Interim Dividend will be subject to a 15% withholding tax. Millicom will withhold the 15% withholding tax and pay this amount to the Luxembourg tax administration. The Interim Dividend will be paid net of withholding tax. However, a reduced withholding tax rate may be foreseen in a double tax treaty concluded between Luxembourg and the country of residence of the shareholder or an exemption may be available in cases where the Luxembourg withholding tax exemption regime conditions are fulfilled. These shareholders should contact their advisors regarding the procedure and the deadline for a potential refund of the withholding tax from the Luxembourg tax authority. Millicom shareholders should consult their tax advisor regarding potential tax implications.
