BAM delivers adjusted EBITDA of €333 million over 2024
Dividend proposal of €0.25 per share and announcement of €50 million share buyback
Royal BAM Group nv delivered an adjusted EBITDA of €333 million in 2024, reflecting a margin of 5.2%. The order book increased by €3.2 billion (+33%) to €13 billion, driven by both divisions. BAM’s cash position and solvency remained solid. BAM proposes to increase the dividend over 2024 by 25% to €0.25 per share and plans to return €50 million to its shareholders via a share buyback.
