VINCI 2005 ANNUAL REPORT
VINCI and its shareholders
In 2005, VINCI increased its dividend by 14%. As in 2004, an interim
dividend of €0.70* was paid in December 2005. The VINCI Shareholder
Relations Department continued to build a special relationship
with shareholders, always ready to answer their questions by phone,
letter or e-mail and organising occasions when they can meet and
discover the Group and its activities. VINCI sends them a twice-yearly
Shareholders’ Letter to keep them regularly informed and publishes a
shareholder’s guide. VINCI has also set up a Shareholders’ Club which
is open to all its shareholders, providing a range of benefi ts. VINCI
regularly carries out shareholder satisfaction surveys to become more
acquainted with them and to better meet their needs.
A Shareholders’ Club open to all
Holding just one share and applying to the Shareholder Relations
Department suffi ces to become a member of the VINCI Shareholders’
Club. Members are invited to information meetings in Paris and
in the regions, to the Actionaria investment fair held in Paris in
November and to visits to sites such as the Stade de France, Eurovia’s
R&D centre near Bordeaux, etc. They can also buy books published
by the Group at a discount.
VINCI is also pleased to be able to give Club members a special card
allowing entry to the Château de Versailles. This strictly personal card
gives members, accompanied by a person of their choice, entry to the
château, the gardens and the Hall of Mirrors, which is being comprehensively
restored by VINCI under a skills-based sponsorship scheme.
* restated following the two-for-one share split on 13 May 2005.
