Annual General Meeting financial
"convocation notice for its Annual General Meeting (“AGM”), which will be held"
statutory audited financial statements financial
"AGM materials, which include Ermenegildo Zegna’s 2025 statutory audited financial statements"
retained earnings financial
"recommend shareholders a distribution from retained earnings with respect to the financial year 2025"
Retained earnings are the cumulative portion of a company's profits that management keeps instead of distributing to shareholders as dividends; they appear on the balance sheet as part of owners’ value. For investors, retained earnings matter because they act like a company’s savings account—funding growth, paying down debt, or supporting future dividends—and their size and changes reveal how profitable the business has been and how management chooses to use those profits.
ex-date financial
"the ex-date and the record dates will be July 6, 2026"
The ex-date is the specific day when a stock stops trading with the right to receive an upcoming dividend or other benefit. If you buy the stock on or after this date, you won't get the upcoming payout; instead, the seller will. It’s like a cut-off point that determines who is entitled to receive the benefits of a company’s distribution to shareholders.
record date financial
"the ex-date and the record dates will be July 6, 2026"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
dividend taxation financial
"important notice on dividend taxation, on June 30, 2026 under the Stock Info section"
Dividend taxation is the tax applied to the cash or stock payments shareholders receive from a company’s profits; it determines how much of that payout investors actually keep. Like getting a paycheck with taxes taken out, the amount owed can vary depending on an investor’s income level and the tax rules in their location, so it directly affects after-tax return. Because it changes the real income from holdings, dividend taxation influences which stocks investors buy, hold, or sell and whether they use tax-advantaged accounts.
