A strong net income after tax, strengthened financial position and reduced financing cost create an opportunity to propose an increased dividend from SEK 0.10 to SEK 0.25 per A- and B ordinary share. SBB’s estimated earnings capacity on a rolling 12-month basis at the end of the year was SEK 770 million, an increase with 32 percent from SEK 582m at the end of 2017.
