Insights

Shareholders back 2025 results, a sizeable dividend and mostly continuity in oversight.

Macro Bank Inc. obtained shareholder approval of its 2025 financial statements, board and Supervisory Committee performance, which supports continuity in governance. Profit allocation channels a large portion of retained earnings into legal and optional reserves, consistent with local regulatory expectations.

The approved dividend of AR$ 147,101,261,954 in constant currency, or AR$ 217.33 per share, comes from realized audited earnings and must comply with Banco Central de la República Argentina Communiqué “A” 8410. Payment in three monthly installments and the 7% withholding tax shape the net cash actually received by investors.

Shareholders also endorsed board and auditor appointments and set compensation and the Audit Committee budget. Actual cash outflow timing depends on central bank authorization and the board’s later decisions on currency, form (cash or in kind) and other payment terms within the delegated powers.

"figures are expressed in constant currency as of 31 December 2025"
Constant currency is a way of measuring financial results that removes the effects of changes in currency exchange rates. It allows for a clearer comparison of a company's performance over time by showing what the numbers would look like if exchange rates had stayed the same. This helps investors understand whether growth comes from actual business improvements or just currency fluctuations.

A company's audit committee is a small group of board members who act like independent inspectors for the firm's finances, overseeing how financial reports are prepared, monitoring internal controls, and managing the relationship with external auditors. Investors care because a strong audit committee reduces the risk of accounting errors, fraud, or misleading statements, making financial statements more trustworthy and helping protect shareholder value.
