Essen, 8 June 2026 – The shareholders of secunet Security Networks AG approved all proposals of the Management Board with a strong majority at the ordinary Annual General Meeting held today in Essen. The solid foundation presented by Germany’s leading cybersecurity partner and its strategic future course received broad support from investors.

Successful 2025 fiscal year as a basis
In his report, secunet’s Chief Executive Officer Marc‑Julian Siewert reflected on a successful 2025 fiscal year. The company further consolidated its position as market leader for high‑quality IT‑security solutions in day‑to‑day and critical missions. “We finished the past year with a record result and were able to achieve our targets in the upper range of expectations. Successful projects such as the launch of our EES portfolio for border control or equipping the NATO headquarters with communication solutions demonstrate our strong market positioning. We continued the positive development of the last year into the first quarter of 2026,” said Marc‑Julian Siewert. “The strong order intake shows the high demand for our core technologies. This excellent performance provides the ideal foundation for our ambitious growth course in the coming years.”

Attractive dividend and authorized capital
As a sign of operational strength, the General Meeting resolved to distribute a dividend of €2.58 per eligible share, allowing shareholders to participate again in the company’s success of the past year.

To remain agile in responding to market opportunities, shareholders also approved, with a large majority, the creation of authorized capital. This measure considerably expands the company’s financial flexibility, enabling the Management Board to raise equity for strategic investments, technological developments, or potential acquisitions when needed.

Excellent growth prospects
The tense geopolitical situation and the intensifying threat landscape in cybersecurity increase worldwide demand for sovereign and certified security architectures. In his speech, Marc‑Julian Siewert therefore highlighted the company’s strategic orientation: “With today’s resolutions and our full innovation pipeline, we are excellently positioned for the rising global demand in our industry. The ongoing digitalization of the public sector, the growing protection needs of critical infrastructures and the increasing use of artificial intelligence offer us outstanding growth prospects for the coming years. We are strengthening partnerships with technology leaders: together with HPE and NVIDIA we deliver turn‑key AI‑solutions for highly confidential data. At the same time, we are developing, together with INNOSYSTECin Germany, a sovereign data‑integration and analytics platform for police and security authorities. In this way we increase the operational capability of national security organizations, strengthen Europe’s resilience and use the current dynamics to further expand our market leadership. In the coming months, we will intensify our ambitions and announce additional partnerships soon.”

In addition to the profit distribution and the creation of authorized capital, the members of the Management Board and Supervisory Board for the 2025 fiscal year were discharged with a clear majority.
