Proposals for resolution
2. Election of Chair of the Meeting
The Nomination Committee proposes Henrik Fritz, member of the Swedish Bar Association as Chair of the Meeting.
9.3 Resolution on disposition of profit or loss according to the adopted balance sheet
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on an extraordinary one-off dividend of SEK 5.00 per share. Of the funds at the disposal of the Annual General Meeting, SEK 2,573,300.210, SEK 107,750.000 will be distributed to shareholders through the extraordinary one-time dividend and the remainder, SEK 2,465,550.210, will be carried forward. 19 June 2025 is proposed as the record date for receiving dividend. With this record date, the dividend is expected to be paid on 25 June 2025.
10.1 Determination on number of members of the Board of Directors
The Nomination Committee proposes that the Board of Directors shall consist of six members.
10.2 Determination on number of Auditors
The Nomination Committee proposes that one registered auditing company shall be appointed.
11.1 Determination on compensation to the Board of Directors
The Nomination Committee proposes the following compensation and other remuneration for directorship and board assignments to board members who are elected by the Annual General Meeting and not employed by the Company:
- 1,500,000 (1,200,000) SEK to the Chairman of the Board of Directors and 550,000 (400,000) SEK to each of the other members of the Board of Directors
- 200,000 (150,000) SEK to the Chairman and 100,000 (75,000) SEK to each of the other members of the audit committee
- 100,000 (100,000) SEK to the Chairman and 50,000 (50,000) SEK to each of the other members of the remuneration committee
- 200,000 (150,000) SEK to the Chairman and 100,000 (75,000) SEK to each of the other members of the risk- and compliance committee.
The Nomination Committee's aim is for each board members' shareholding in the Company to correspond to such board member's annual net compensation (including remuneration for work on board committees). Accordingly, the Nomination Committee encourages board members whose current shareholding does not meet this threshold to invest 50 percent of their total net annual remuneration in shares in the Company until the target level has been reached. The Nomination Committee will take this objective into consideration when preparing proposals for the re-election of Board members at future Annual General Meetings.
11.2 Determination on compensation to the Auditor
The Nomination Committee proposes that the Auditor's compensation be paid against approved invoice.
12.1 Election of Directors of the Board
The Nomination Committee proposes re-election of the following board members:
- John Brehmer
- Niklas Johansson
- Michael Lindengren
- Sara Mindus
- Fredrik Oweson
- Arti Zeighami
12.2 Election of Chair of the Board
The Nomination Committee proposes that John Brehmer is re-elected as Chairman of the Board of Directors.
12.3 Election of Auditor
The Nomination Committee proposes in accordance with the audit committee's recommendation election of the registered auditing company Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers AB ("PwC") as Auditor. PwC has informed that the authorised public accountant Frida Main will be the Auditor in charge if PwC is elected.
13. Resolution on authorisation for the Board of Directors to resolve on acquisition and transfer of own shares
The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition and transfer of own shares on or outside Nasdaq Stockholm or in accordance with an offer of acquisition made to all shareholders. The authorisation may be exercised on one or more occasions until the next Annual General Meeting.
A maximum of so many shares may be acquired that the Company's holdings, including shares that have otherwise been acquired and held, will not exceed five per cent of all shares in the Company. Transfer in accordance with the authorisation may be made of all own shares held by the Company at the time of the Board's decision.
The purpose of the proposal is to give the Board increased scope for action and the opportunity to continuously adapt the Company's capital structure, thereby contributing to increased shareholder value and to capture attractive business opportunities by fully or partially financing corporate acquisitions with own shares and to secure undertakings and social security contributions under outstanding incentive programs.
14. Resolution on authorisation for the Board of Directors to resolve on new share issues
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorise the Board, on one or more occasions, to resolve on new share issues. The number of shares issued pursuant to the authorisation may not exceed an increase of twenty per cent of the share capital based on the share capital of the Company at the time of the Annual General Meeting's resolution on this authorisation. Payment may, in addition to cash payment, be made by way of contribution or set-off, or otherwise with conditions. If the Board of Directors decides to issue new shares with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the reason for this shall be to provide the company with new owners of strategic importance to the company or in order to implement an acquisition agreement, or alternatively to procure capital for such acquisitions.
15. Resolution on the amendment of the Articles of Association and on share split
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to increase the number of shares in the Company through a share split, whereby each existing share is divided into three shares (Share Split 3:1), in accordance with the following terms. The purpose of the share split is to achieve a number of shares that is appropriate for the Company.
The Board's proposal for resolutions under items 15.1 and 15.2 below shall be adopted as one resolution and are conditional upon both being approved by the General Meeting. The resolutions under these items may be registered jointly or in whole or in part separately.
15.1 Resolution on the amendment of the Articles of Association
In order to enable the share split as set out in item 15.2 below, the Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to amend the limits for the number of shares in § 5 of the Articles of Association as set out below.
Current wording | Proposed wording |
§ 5 Number of sharesThe number of shares in the company shall be not less than 21,500,000 and not more than 86,000,000. | § 5 Number of sharesThe number of shares in the company shall be not less than 64,650,000 and not more than 258,600,000. |
15.2 Resolution on share split
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on a share split, whereby one (1) existing share is divided into three (3) shares (Share Split 3:1). Following the completion of the share split, the number of shares in the Company will increase from 21,550,000 to 64,650,000. The proposed Share Split entails an amendment of the quota value of the share from SEK 5.00 to SEK 1 2/3.
The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting authorises the Board to determine the record date for the Share Split.
The Board of Directors also proposes that the Board, or any person appointed by the Board, shall be authorised to make such minor adjustments to the resolution as may prove necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB.
The Nomination Committee
The Nomination Committee consists of the Chair Paul Källenius (TFB Holding AB), Erik Selin (Erik Selin Fastigheter AB), Jonas Weil (Proventus Aktiebolag), and John Brehmer (Chair of the Board of Directors).
Majority rules
For resolutions in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal in accordance with items 13, 14 and 15, shareholders with at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the Meeting must support the resolutions.
