The reported earnings per share (EPS) amounted to €−0.33 (2022/23: €1.21). The previous financial year benefited from the sale of a property, the divestment of the India business, and positive non-cash currency effects. In financial year 2023/24, there were no comparable positive impacts. In line with METRO’s dividend policy (payout ratio of 45% to 55% of EPS), no dividend payments are planned for the financial year 2023/24.
