Shareholders opt for 60% of shares for optional dividend. Capital increase of around 23 million euros that will be deployed for supporting WDP in realizing its strategic growth plan 2013-16.

The WDP shareholders chose for approximately 60% of their shares for a contribution of their dividend rights in consideration for new shares instead of payment of the dividend in cash.
