Solstad Offshore ASA has announced a dividend proposal for Q3 2025, set to be decided at an extraordinary general meeting on November 24, 2025. The proposal, if approved, will result in a cash dividend of USD 0.05 per share, payable in NOK. Here's a breakdown of the key details you need to know:
- Dividend Amount: USD 0.05 per share
- Declared Currency: USD (though the dividend will be paid in NOK)
- Last Trading Day: November 24, 2025
- Ex-Date: November 25, 2025
- Record Date: November 26, 2025

This proposal is subject to the approval of the shareholders' meeting. If approved, shareholders will receive their dividend payment in NOK, which will be converted from USD. It's important to note that the dividend will be paid out in NOK, not USD, so shareholders should be aware of the exchange rate impact.
This announcement is in line with the requirements outlined in the Euronext Oslo Børs Rule Book II, Section 4.2.4. For more information, you can contact the company's CEO, Lars Peder Solstad, at +47 91 31 85 85, or the Chief Financial Officer, Kjetil Ramstad, at +47 90 75 94 89.
But here's where it gets interesting: The proposed dividend amount of USD 0.05 per share may seem small, but it's a strategic move by the company. Some investors might question whether this is a sign of financial prudence or a missed opportunity to boost shareholder returns. What do you think? Is a modest dividend a responsible approach, or should companies aim for higher returns to reward shareholders more generously? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
