For example, a company has 100 shares, 5 shareholders, each holding 20 shares, and one shareholder is responsible for operation and management. If:
According to the Articles of Association, 50% of the profits will be distributed to the shareholders who are responsible for the operation, and 65,438+02.5% will be distributed to the other four shareholders in proportion as agreed in the Articles of Association.
There is no agreement in the articles of association on how to distribute the profits, so whether a shareholder is in charge of management or not, and whether a shareholder has the status of legal representative or not, the profits are distributed according to the proportion of 20% for each person.
Joining new shareholders requires the company to make a resolution (capital increase) and agree on the profit distribution method. If there is no agreement, it will still be distributed according to the shareholding ratio. If the new shareholders hold 20 shares and the total number of shares in the company is 120, the profits will be distributed to the new shareholders according to the ratio of 1/6.
Supplement:
The provisions of national laws are to distribute profits according to the proportion of shareholders' shares in the company when the articles of association do not stipulate how to distribute profits. The simple truth is that whoever pays more will get more profits!
Dividends are the rights of shareholders, because shareholders are investors. Legal representatives and operators, if not shareholders, have no right to share dividends. But as employees of the company, they can get salaries and bonuses determined according to their work performance. The amount of wages and bonuses shall be negotiated by employees and shareholders, and finally decided by shareholders.
