Tenaris Postpones Annual General Meeting of Shareholders

 

 

Luxembourg, 25^th March 2020 – Tenaris S.A. (NYSE and Mexico: TS and MTA Italy: TEN) announced today that, in light of the current uncertainty around the extent and timing of the future spread of COVID-19, the imposition or relaxation of protective measures adopted in response to the pandemic, and their effect on the energy industry generally and the Company’s business in particular, its board of directors has resolved to postpone the Company’s annual general meeting of shareholders originally planned to be held in Luxembourg on 30^th April 2020.

 

The annual general meeting of shareholders will be convened for 2^nd June 2020. The board of directors expects to announce on 29^th April 2020 the proposals to be submitted to the consideration of the meeting, including its proposal on dividends. Given that the new market conditions are expected to have an adverse impact on the Company’s business outlook, any such dividend proposal may differ from the intended proposal announced on 19^th February 2020.
