AcadeMedia

On 30 November 2023, AcadeMedia’s Annual General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the proposal from the Board, on a voluntary redemption program, comprising a reduction of the share capital for repayment to the shareholders and a bonus issue without issuance of new shares. The Board of AcadeMedia has now set the terms of the voluntary redemption program, based on the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting.

Not more than 4,223,502 ordinary shares may be redeemed and thus, the share capital may be reduced by not more than SEK 4,223,502. The share capital reduction will be restored through a bonus issue, whereby the company’s share capital will be increased by SEK 5,279,378.

The record day for receipt of redemption rights has been set to 23 February 2024. Those who, on the record day, are registered as shareholders in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden on behalf of AcadeMedia receive one redemption right for each ordinary share held in AcadeMedia. 25 redemption rights entitle to redemption of one ordinary share. The shares will be redeemed in exchange for a cash payment of SEK 65 per share. In total, not more than SEK 274,527,630 may be paid as redemption proceeds.

Customary trading in redemption rights and redemption shares on Nasdaq Stockholm will be arranged.

The dates applicable to the redemption programme are set out below. An information brochure with further information about the voluntary redemption programme will be available on the company’s website, www.academedia.se, as of Tuesday 20 February 2024.
