The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to authorize the board of directors to, until the next annual general meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, on one or several occasions resolve to issue new shares. The increase of the share capital may – where it entails a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights – correspond to a dilution of a maximum of 10 percent of the share capital at the time of the first use of the authorization. Payment shall be made in cash, by way of set-off or with capital contributed in kind (Sw. apport). The authorization shall primarily be used for the purpose of acquisitions or financing.

A valid resolution by the annual general meeting requires that shareholders representing not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the annual general meeting vote in favour of the proposal.

Resolution on authorization for the board of directors to resolve on acquisition of treasury shares (item 15)

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on authorization for the board of directors during the period until the next annual general meeting on one or more occasions, deciding on the acquisition of own shares in the Company as follows.

  • Acquisitions will be made over Nasdaq Stockholm.
  • Acquisition of not more than so many shares that the Company in total holds at maximum 10 per cent of the total number of shares in the Company at any given time.
  • Acquisitions may be made at a price per share for the price prevailing on the stock exchange at any given time.
  • Acquisitions shall be made in accordance with Nasdaq Stockholm's rules and regulations in force at any given time.
  • The authorization may be exercised on one or more occasions until the next annual general meeting.

The board of directors submits the following reasoned statement in accordance with Chapter 19, Section 22 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551).

The purpose of the authorization to acquire own shares is to provide the board of directors with an instrument to continuously adapt and improve the Company's capital structure during the year, thereby creating additional value for shareholders. A prerequisite for authorizing the board of directors to carry out acquisitions of own shares is that both the Company's capital adequacy ratio and liquidity even after the acquisition of own shares have been completed will be reassuring in relation to the business in which the group operates.

In view of the Company's position today and the above-mentioned circumstances, the board of directors considers that the proposed authorization for the board of directors to carry out acquisitions of own shares is justifiable in view of i) the requirements that the nature, scope and risks of the business (the Company and the Group) place on the size of the equity, and ii) the Company's and the Group's consolidation needs, liquidity and position in general.

A valid resolution by the annual general meeting requires that shareholders representing not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the annual general meeting vote in favour of the proposal.

Resolution on a long-term incentive program (LTIP 2025/2028) (item 16)

The annual general meetings 2022, 2023 and 2024 resolved on implementing long-term incentive programs for key-personnel.

It has been mentioned in the earlier resolutions that it is the intention of the board of directors to propose new corresponding programs to be adopted annually at future annual general meetings. The board of directors therefore proposes that the annual general meeting resolves, in accordance with the below on a long-term incentive program for the key-personnel of the group with corresponding terms and conditions as for former programs in order to stimulate them to continued long-term commitment and continued good performance as well as to increase the group’s attractiveness as an employer.

A prerequisite for the successful implementation of the group’s business strategy and safeguarding of its long-term interests is that the group is able to retain the best competencies and their loyalty, and that the Company’s executive management and other key-personnel of the group ("Key-Personnel") continue to deliver results and perform at a very high level. The board of directors finds it important and in all shareholders’ interest that Key-Personnel have a long-term interest in a positive development of the share price of the Company. Also, the board of directors would like to encourage the Key-Personnel to make investments in the Company.

In light of the above, the board of directors proposes to the annual general meeting to resolve on (a) implementing a long-term incentive program ("LTIP 2025/2028") for Key-Personnel, (b) a directed issue of not more than 776,000 warrants, (c) approving that the Company that subscribes for the warrants transfers them to secure the transfer to the participants, (d) authorizing the board of directors to resolve on acquisition of treasury shares and (e) approving the transfer of treasury shares to secure the transfer to participants in the incentive programs.

  1. Implementation of a long-term incentive program (LTIP 2025/2028)

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to implement a long-term incentive program (LTIP 2025/2028) including not more than 776,000 shares in the Company on the following principal terms and conditions:

  • Up to 45 executive managers and other key personnel in the group will be offered participation in LTIP 2025/2028.
  • Participation in LTIP 2025/2028 presupposes that the participants with their own funds acquire shares in the Company ("Investment Shares") at market price. If the Investment Shares are retained until 15 May 2028 ("Savings Period") and the participant remains employed in the group throughout the Savings Period, then each Investment Share entitles the holder to acquire up to four shares in the Company ("Performance Shares") at a price corresponding to 70 percent of the volume-weighted average price of completed transactions in the Company's shares during the period from and including 12 May 2025 up to and including 23 May 2025 on Nasdaq Stockholm.
  • The maximum numbers of Performance Shares that Key Personnel has the right to acquire, provided that other requirements for the right to acquire Performance Shares are met, appear below. The number of Performance Shares each Investment Share entitles to (a decimal number between zero and four, and which is rounded off at an aggregate level for the individual to an even number of shares) is decided by the board of directors and is linked to measures of capital cost-adjusted earnings (EBITA adjusted for a calculated cost for capital employed) determined by the board of directors. The key figures are intended to relate to the Company's financial goals and reflect the Company's strategic priorities. Furthermore, a prerequisite for obtaining Performance Shares is that the participants do not act in violation of the Company's policies during the Savings Period.
CategoryMaximum allotment of Performance Shares
CEO in the Company160,000
CFO in the Company120,000
Other members of the group management/key personnel30,000-48,000
  • Acquisition of Investment Shares must take place no later than 23 June 2025, with the right for the board of directors to extend this period if there are obstacles to a participant's acquisition during the period or in case a so-called closed period, or other similar period during which inside information exists in the Company would arise.
  • Performance Shares will be received no later than 30 June 2028. Acquisition of Performance Shares takes place, in accordance with the Company's board of directors' choice, in a way that the participant in the program receives warrants of series 2025/2028, which are exchanged for shares according to the terms and conditions hereof, or that the participant in the program acquires shares from the Company.
  • The right to acquire Performance Shares cannot be transferred.
  • It is presupposed that participation in the program can take place in accordance with the applicable laws in the countries concerned and that such participation, according to the board of director's assessment, can take place with reasonable administrative costs and financial efforts.
  • The number of Performance Shares shall be subject to customary recalculation as a result of intermediate share split and reverse share split, bonus issue, rights issue and/or other similar corporate events.
  • The board of directors shall be responsible for the detailed wording and handling of LTIP 2025/2028 within the framework of the above main terms and conditions and also have the right to make the minor adjustments to these terms and conditions that may be required as a result of legal or administrative reasons. In addition, the board of directors shall have the right to make adjustments and deviations from the terms and conditions due to local rules in jurisdictions other than Sweden and existing market practice.
  1. Directed issue of warrants

In order to secure the transfer of Performance Shares in LTIP 2025/2028, the board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves upon an issue of warrants on the following terms and conditions:

  • The Company shall issue not more than 776,000 warrants of series 2025/2028 ("Warrants").
  • The right to subscribe for the Warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, belong to the Company.
  • Over-subscription is not allowed.
  • Subscription of the Warrants shall take place on a separate subscription list no later than 30 June 2025. The board of directors is entitled to prolong the subscription period. The Warrants shall be allotted to the Company free of charge.
  • Each Warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company during the period 15 May 2028 to 30 June 2028. In case this period would be within a so-called closed period, or other similar period during which inside information exists in the Company, the board of directors may resolve to prolong the period.
  • The price for the shares at exercise shall be equal to 70 percent of the volume-weighted average price of completed transactions in the Company's shares during the period from and including 12 May 2025 up to and including 23 May 2025 on Nasdaq Stockholm. The price shall however not be lower than the quotient value of the share.
  • Shares issued as a result of subscription will carry rights to dividends as of the first record date for dividends that occur after registration of the share issue with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the shares have been registered in the share register kept with Euroclear Sweden AB.
  • The complete terms and conditions for the Warrants are set forth in a separate appendix. As set forth therein, the subscription price, as well as the number of shares, which a Warrant entitles subscription for, can be recalculated in the event of a share split, bonus issue, new issue and in certain other cases.
  • The increase of the Company’s share capital will, upon exercise of the Warrants, amount to not more than SEK 7,760, subject to such increase that may occur due to recalculation of the subscription price and the number of shares, which each Warrant entitles subscription for in the event of a share split, issues etcetera.
  • The reason for deviating from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to allow for the Company to transfer Performance Shares to the participants in LTIP 2025/2028.
  • Upon full subscription by virtue of the Warrants, a maximum of 776,000 new shares may be issued, corresponding to a dilution of approximately 0.4 percent of the total number of shares and votes in the Company, however, subject to the increase that may result from a re-calculation of the subscription price and number of shares, which each Warrant entitles subscription for as a result of certain events as set out in a separate appendix. The dilution is calculated as the total number of new shares divided by the total number of shares after the increase of the number of shares and the total number of new votes divided by the total number of votes after the increase in the number of votes.
  • The board of directors is authorized to make such minor adjustments in the annual general meeting’s resolution as may be required in connection with the registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Sweden AB.
  1. Approval of the Company's transfer of Warrants

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to approve transfer of Warrants on the following terms and conditions:

  • The Company shall be entitled to offer and transfer the Warrants free of charge to Key-Personnel within the framework of LTIP 2025/2028.
  • The final allotment is dependent on the allotment of Performance Shares according to item (a) above.
  • Transfer of the Warrants from the Company to the Key-Personnel shall be free of charge.
  1. Authorization for the board of directors to resolve on acquisition of treasury shares

In order to secure the transfer of Investment Shares and Performance Shares in the Company's at each time outstanding incentive programs, the board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorizes the board of directors to acquire treasury shares in accordance with the following:

  • Acquisitions shall be made on Nasdaq Stockholm.
  • Acquisition of not more than so many shares that the Company in total holds at maximum 10 per cent of the total number of shares in the Company at any given time.
  • Acquisitions may be made at a price per share corresponding to the applicable stock market price of the share at any given time.
  • Acquisitions shall be made in accordance with the at the time applicable Nasdaq Stockholm regulations.
  • The authorization may be exercised on one or several occasions until the next annual general meeting.

The board of directors gives the following reasoned statement pursuant to Chapter 19, Section 22 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551).

The purpose of the authorization is to make it possible to transfer shares to the participants in the Company's at each time outstanding incentive programs and thus the board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorizes the board of directors to acquire treasury shares. A condition for the authorization of the board of directors to acquire treasury shares is that the Company's capital cover ratio and liquidity, even after an acquisition of the Company's treasury shares, are adequate in relation to the business that the group operates in.

In the light of the Company's current position and the above-mentioned conditions, the board of directors considers the proposed authorization for the board of directors to acquire the Company's treasury shares to be defensible with regard to i) the requirements regarding the size of the shareholders’ equity in relation to the nature, scope and risks in relation to the conducted business (both those of the Company and of the group), and ii) the consolidation requirements, liquidity and the position in general for each of the Company and the group.

  1. Resolution on transfer of treasury shares

To ensure delivery of Investment Shares and Performance Shares in the Company's outstanding incentive programs, the board of director proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to transfer treasury shares on the following terms and conditions:

  • The Company has the right to transfer the number of shares held by the Company to ensure delivery of Investment Shares and Performance Shares to participants in the Company's outstanding incentive programs.
  • The right to acquire shares, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, shall belong to participants in the Company's outstanding incentive programs, with the right for each participant to acquire a maximum of the number of shares that follow from the terms and conditions of the relevant incentive program.
  • The said participant's right to acquire shares may be exercised during the time that the participants with their own funds must acquire Investment Shares in the Company and during the time that the participants have the right to acquire Performance Shares according to the relevant incentive program. In case any of these periods would be within a so-called closed period, or other similar period during which inside information exists in the Company, the board of directors may resolve to prolong the period.
  • Transfer of treasury shares such as Investment Shares shall take place at market price and transfer of shares such as Performance Shares shall take place at a price corresponding to the price at which participants in the incentive program, according to the terms of the program, are entitled to acquire Performance Shares.
  • The number of shares transferred in accordance with the Company's outstanding incentive programs may be subject to recalculation as a result of a bonus issue, share split and/or reverse share split, rights issue or similar events that affect the number of shares in the Company.
  • The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights in the transfer of treasury shares is to enable the Company to transfer Investment Shares and Performance Shares to the participants in the Company's outstanding incentive programs.

Additional information

Costs for the Company and effects on key figures

The board of directors estimates that LTIP 2025/2028 will incur costs partly in the form of accounting salary costs and partly in the form of social security contributions.

The accounting salary costs depend on how many Performance Shares are earned and are reported as a cost but have no effect on cash flow. Based on assumptions that (i) 100 percent of the 776,000 Performance Share rights within LTIP 2025/2028 will be allocated, (ii) an annual staff turnover of 5 percent and that (iii) 50 percent and 100 percent respectively of earned rights to acquire Performance Shares for remaining employees may be utilized, the accounting staff costs for Performance Shares are estimated to amount to a total of approximately SEK 5.8 million and approximately SEK 11.6 million during the period 2025/2028 based on Performance Shares' fair value at the time of calculation. The right to Performance Shares have no market value because it is not transferable. The theoretical value of the Performance Share right has been calculated using the Black & Scholes valuation model. Based on an assumed share price of SEK 49.62, an assumed exercise price of SEK 34.73, a term of 3.0 years, a risk-free interest rate of 2.25 percent, an assumed volatility of 35 percent, the value has been calculated at approximately SEK 17.50 per Performance Share right.

Costs for social security contributions will be paid if the employee finally receives a positive outcome. Social security contributions depend partly on how many Performance Shares are earned and may be utilized, and partly on the value of the benefit that the participant ultimately receives, i.e. on Performance Shares' value at utilization in 2028, but also on which countries the participants reside and what percentages apply to social security contributions in these countries. Based on the same assumptions as above and an assumed share price of SEK 74.00 when utilizing Performance Shares, an assumed distribution between different countries and an assumed average percentage for social security contributions of approximately 25 percent, the costs for the social security contributions amount to approximately SEK 3.3 million and SEK 6.5 million respectively. With the same assumptions as above, but an assumed share price of SEK 99.00 when utilizing Performance Shares instead of SEK 74.00, the costs for social security contributions are estimated to amount to approximately SEK 5.3 million and approximately SEK 10.7 million, respectively.

The following is the total (aggregate) effect on the key figure EBITA during the period 2025-2028 amounts to in the above-mentioned outcome:

Reduction of total EBITA during the period, to be distributed during the length of the program, million SEK.

The total costs for LTIP 2025/2028 will be distributed over the years 2025-2028. When all Performance Shares are earned in 2028, the costs will be distributed evenly over the period. The effect on EBITA for an individual year will therefore be part of the above total cost.

It should be noted that all calculations above are preliminary, based on assumptions and only aim to provide an illustration of the costs that LTIP 2025/2028 may entail. Actual costs may thus deviate from what is stated above.

In addition to the cost for administration, implementation and evaluation of LTIP 2025/2028, no additional costs are expected to incur in connection with LTIP 2025/2028.

Other share-based incentive programs

Please refer to the Company's annual report of 2024 in respect of other outstanding share-based incentive programs in the Company.

Majority requirements

A valid resolution in accordance with item (a) above, requires that shareholders representing more than half of the votes cast vote in favour of the proposal.

Valid resolutions pursuant to items (b), (c) and (e) above, requires that shareholders representing not less than nine tenths of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the annual general meeting vote in favour of the proposal.
