* The EPS is calculated on the basis of net profit after minority interests and the number of shares entitled to dividend, weighted over the course of the year. No dilution effect is resulting because no options or convertible bonds are outstanding.
** The registered shares were delisted from the Swiss stock exchange in 2003. In our calculation these are taken into account with 1/6 of the bearer share price of December 31.
*** Dividend payments are always subject to approval by the Annual General Meeting of Sika AG.
