The Annual General Meeting of Sobi on 8 May 2025 resolved on directed issues of class C shares, with the aim of ensuring that Sobi can fulfil its obligations under the outstanding long-term incentive programmes. Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting also resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on the repurchase of all issued class C shares through an acquisition offer directed to all owners of class C shares in Sobi.

On 15 July 2025, the Board of Directors of Sobi resolved to, conditional upon subscription and payment from Svenska Handelsbanken AB, repurchase all issued class C shares. Svenska Handelsbanken AB has today subscribed for all 1,412,788 issued class C shares and the new share issues are therefore completed. The total proceeds from the issues amount to SEK 775,204.50 and have been paid on this day.

Upon repurchase of all 1,412,788 class C shares, the intention is to convert the repurchased class C shares into common shares pursuant to the conversion provision in Sobi's articles of association to secure future delivery of common shares to the participants in the outstanding incentive programmes.

Sobi currently holds 11,343,749 own common shares and no own class C shares. Following the repurchase and conversion of the class C shares to common shares, Sobi will hold 12,756,537 own common shares.
