Thanks Tony - the "à nouveau" part is as in "report à nouveau" - the carrying forward of unallocated profit.// 100% sure, no - too little context, but the "report à noveau" of profits is one that I've encountered professionally.

Thanks - Yes, as I'm new to Proz I don't expect people to take my word for truth, and having worked as a researcher it's a reflex to back up claims with references when possible.

: aucun besoin de contexte : la phrase est limite et vos références en DBox sont parfaitement exactes.

: Since this is the shareholders' meeting, maybe "Pass resolutions concerning the carrying forward of profits"//Because that's who normally makes such decisions.

Thanks Phil - how do you know it's for a shareholders' meeting? I didn't see any mention of this.// Only if it's a quoted company! :)

decide any profit carryforwards
Keep it simple. The words 'carryforward' and 'carryback' have already been coined, although in the anglo-saxon world the qualifier is usually 'loss' rather than 'profit' and the context is usually deferred tax accounting.
"Report à nouveau" is a line on the balance sheet in French companies' statutory accounts that hardly figures in financial reporting à la IFRS.

Discussion
Après la dotation à la réserve légale est effectuée la distribution du dividende statutaire prévu par les statuts et versé aux actionnaires ou associés. Il est généralement de 5 à 6% du montant libéré (part versée à la société) du capital social. Le dividende statutaire peut être cumulatif : dans ce cas, il est payé en priorité sur les bénéfices des années suivantes si le bénéfice d'un exercice n'a pas été suffisant pour effectuer sa distribution.
Après dotation à la réserve légale, versement du dividende statutaire et constitution d'autres réserves, l'Assemblée Générale décide, le cas échéant, de distribuer des dividendes supplémentaires, ou super-dividendes, aux actionnaires.
Ce que l'on appelle les dividendes est donc constitué de la somme des dividendes statutaires et des superdividendes. Ils viennent augmenter les "Autres dettes" du bilan jusqu'à ce qu'ils soient payés aux actionnaires.
