Seven West Media suspended its dividend payments in 2018, in order to focus on reducing debt. Chairman Kerry Stokes has told the group’s AGM that it will review its dividend policy in 2022, but he declined to make any commitment as to when dividends will resume. Stokes also defended the remuneration package of CEO James Warburton, whose total pay topped $7.6m in 2020-21; Stokes says that Warburton is paid for performance, and his pay reflected the challenges faced by Seven during the last year, including the global pandemic.
