TAIPEI - Acer (TW:2353) Incorporated has disclosed its consolidated financial results for the year 2024, revealing substantial earnings and proposing a dividend distribution to its shareholders. The information, based on a press release statement, indicates the company’s board approved these results and the dividend proposal on Thursday.
The technology firm reported an operating revenue of NT$264.68 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024, with a gross profit of NT$28 billion. Net operating income stood at NT$4.88 billion, while profit before tax reached NT$8.97 billion. The net profit attributable to owners of the parent company was NT$5.54 billion, resulting in basic earnings of NT$1.84 per share.
In light of these results, Acer’s board proposed a cash dividend of NT$1.7 per share, totaling NT$5.18 billion, to be distributed to shareholders. The ex-dividend trading date is set for June 19, 2025, with the record date on June 26, 2025, and the payment date for the cash dividend scheduled for July 24, 2025.
Additionally, the board has approved the convening of the 2025 General Shareholders’ Meeting on May 29, 2025, at the Aspire Resort in Taoyuan City. The meeting will address several reports, including the 2024 Business Report, Audit Committee Report, and the proposed cash dividend distribution. The shareholders will also consider proposals to amend the company’s Articles of Incorporation and Procedures for Acquiring or Disposing of Assets.
In a related development, Acer’s board has also decided to waive subscription rights to 1.5 million shares in the cash capital increase of its subsidiary, Altos Computing Inc., to facilitate its listing on the Taiwan Stock Exchange or Taipei Exchange. This move allows Acer’s shareholders to participate directly in the subscription, with eligibility based on their shareholdings as of the book closure date for Acer’s dividend distribution, June 21, 2025.
The company’s shareholders will have from July 15, 2025, to August 15, 2025, to engage in the payment process for Altos Computing’s capital increase, with detailed instructions to be provided separately after the registration for the capital increase is complete.
Acer’s announcement demonstrates its financial health and commitment to shareholder returns, as well as its strategic approach to corporate governance and subsidiary management.
