ACS Chairman Florentino Pérez highlighted the company’s remarkable stock market appreciation during the 2026 annual general meeting held last Friday. The Spanish construction firm’s share price rose by 100% last year and has risen by a further 62% this year, reaching nearly 140 per share. According to Pérez, this success is down to rigorous risk management and efficient resource allocation. Consequently, he announced an annual dividend of €1.4 per share, representing a 20% increase on the previous financial year. Pérez emphasised that total shareholder return rose to 81.6% in 2025 and that, in just four months of 2026, it already stands at 63%.
These figures have led ACS to consider the possibility of a share split, as stated by the multinational’s CEO, Juan Santamaría, during the AGM, in response to requests from several minority shareholders who believe that this would increase trading volume on the stock market and facilitate the entry of more shareholders.
