• 2024 financial statements approved
• Dividend of €0.406 per share (+15.3% compared to the previous year)

Turin, 13 May 2025 – The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Italgas was held today in Turin under the chairmanship of Benedetta Navarra, with 76.30% of the share capital represented.

Benedetta Navarra, outgoing Chairperson of Italgas, commented:

“A remarkable three-year term comes to an end, during which the Group has become a Network Tech Company. Italgas made this path a reality day by day with a vision and a capacity for innovation in support of a growth trajectory that has successfully combined sustainable development, value creation and energy transition. I conclude this experience with pride and satisfaction for having helped write a new chapter in the history of Italgas and of our country.”

Paolo Gallo, CEO of Italgas, commented:

“With today’s Meeting, we close another year marked by exponential growth. This progress is reflected in a dividend of €0.406 per share, a 15% increase compared to last year. This is a record dividend in the history of our Group, further demonstrating our strong commitment to generating value for all our stakeholders.

Our travel direction has long been clear and assigns Italgas a leading role on the road to net zero. The new scale achieved in recent months, as a result of the significant work done in 2024, and our technical and technological expertise are strategic levers that place us in the best position to lead change.

I would like to thank the Chairperson Navarra, the Board Members, and the Board of Statutory Auditors for their valuable contributions over the years, as well as the Company’s Shareholders for consistently supporting and sharing our vision and for the renewed trust that allows me to continue leading the Group to complete the construction of a major player serving  the Countries and their development goals.”
