Talkpool executes the first successful step of its share option program
Talkpool announces that its founder and executive director, Magnus Sparrholm, has sold 444,000 shares to two Swedish companies with Bruce Grant and Johan Lindqvist as ultimate owners. The transaction has been carried out to fulfil obligations under Talkpool's previously disclosed incentive program.
Background - The Incentive Program
On 12 April 2024, Talkpool announced the structure of its approved incentive program (the "Incentive Program"). The program consists of four sub-programs, each with its own execution window:
- 15 March 2024 - 30 June 2025
- 15 March 2026 - 30 June 2027
- 15 March 2028 - 30 June 2029
- 15 March 2030 - 30 June 2031
The Incentive Program grants participants call options linked to shares owned by Magnus Sparrholm. As a result, the program does not dilute the company's share capital. The total number of shares that can be allocated under all sub-programs is capped at 2,000,000.
Completion of Sub-Program 1
On 1 July 2025, Talkpool announced the successful completion of Sub-Program 1.
To fulfil these commitments under the program, including granting payments of EUR 0.5 per option, Magnus Sparrholm has now executed the sale of 444,000 shares at a price of SEK 12 per share.
Comment from Management
"Talkpool has demonstrated steady progress over a long period and is now positioned for substantial growth, supported by strong profit margins. Welcoming a reputable and well-capitalised new shareholder is further confirmation that we are taking the company in the right direction," said Erik Strömstedt, Executive Director at Talkpool.
Post-Transaction Shareholding
Following the transaction, Magnus Sparrholm holds 1,770,418 shares, corresponding to 23.1% of the company's capital and voting rights.
