Dividend payment marginally reduced

The Board of Management and the Supervisory Board will propose to the Annual General Meeting on June 9, 2009, that the dividend be decreased by €0.03 to €0.49 per non-par-value ordinary share and to €0.55 per non-par-value preferred share for fiscal 2008 compared with the previous year. Based on the share price quoted on December 30, 2008, the Jungheinrich preferred share will bear a high dividend yield of 6.1 per cent (prior year: 2.2 per cent). The dividend payment reflects the figures disclosed in the financial statements last fiscal year as well as the confidence placed by the company in the future.
