   Vienna, May 5, 2023 – The 2022 Annual Financial Statements and the
   Management Report for the 2022 business year were presented at the 154^th
   Annual General Meeting of Wienerberger AG, which in 2023 was again held in
   the proven format of an on-site meeting with physical presence of the
   shareholders. Among other resolutions adopted, the Annual General Meeting
   resolved to distribute a dividend of € 0.90 per share and elect Katrien
   Beuls and Effie Konstantine Datson to the Supervisory Board.

   As Heimo Scheuch, Chairman of the Managing Board of Wienerberger AG,
   notes: “In 2022, we successfully outperformed our own expectations,
   continuing to actively pursue our targets and growth opportunities in our
   markets, despite a challenging macro-economic environment and high
   inflation. Thanks to excellent group-wide cost and energy management, we
   are perfectly positioned to further advance our organic growth.”

   Having closed 2022 as the most successful year in Wienerberger’s history,
   the Managing Board of Wienerberger AG proposed a 20% dividend increase
   over the previous year’s level. Within the framework of its long-term and
   well-balanced dividend policy, Wienerberger recommended a dividend of €
   0.90 per share for the 2022 business year to the 154^th Annual General
   Meeting. The AGM adopted the proposal and set Friday, May 12, 2023, as the
   payment date. Moreover, the Annual General Meeting approved the actions of
   the Supervisory Board and the Managing Board for the 2022 business year
   and elected Deloitte Audit Wirtschaftsprüfungs GmbH, Vienna, as the
   statutory and Group auditor for the 2023 business year. The Annual General
   Meeting also approved the remuneration report for the 2022 business year.

   As of the end of this year’s Annual General Meeting, Oswald Schmid and the
   two former chairpersons of the Supervisory Board, Regina Prehofer and
   Peter Johnson, the latter having been a member of the Supervisory Board
   since 2005, stepped down from the Supervisory Board of Wienerberger AG. In
   the interest of enhanced efficiency and intensive exchanges among its
   members, the Supervisory Board, following a recommendation expressed by
   the Nomination Committee, proposed that the number of capital
   representatives be reduced from nine to seven. The proposal was adopted by
   the AGM. Within the framework of the 154^th Annual General Meeting,
   Katrien Beuls and Effie Konstantine Datson were newly elected to the
   Supervisory Board, and the mandate of Myriam Meyer, currently serving as
   Deputy Chairwoman, was prolonged.

   Commenting on the elections, Peter Steiner, Chairman of the Supervisory
   Board of Wienerberger AG, said, “We are happy to welcome Katrien Beuls and
   Effie Konstantine Datson, two top managers with extensive international
   experience, on the Supervisory Board. They both have an impressive track
   record and, given their specific expertise and their respective
   backgrounds, ideally complement the range of competencies and the
   diversity of the Supervisory Board.”
