The Volvo Group strives to create long-term value for its shareholders.
The Volvo Group’s origins can be traced to 1927, when the first
serial produced Volvo car rolled out of the factory in Göteborg,
Sweden. The first serial produced truck saw the light of day in
1928 and was an immediate success. In 1935, AB Volvo was
listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange.
The graph shows the total return for the Volvo B share, meas-
ured as the share price development with all dividends re- invested,
since December 30, 1982, which is as far back as the comparison
index, SIX Return Index, stretches. SIX Return Index measures the
total return for the Stockholm Stock Exchange as whole.
The graph shows that SEK 1,000 invested in the Volvo B-share
in 1982 had grown to SEK 58,780 at the end of 2015, under the
condition that all dividends have been reinvested in Volvo B
shares.
