Sanoma Corporation, Stock Exchange Release, 20 February 2024 at 13:00 EET
CORRECTION: Sanoma continues its long-term share-based incentive programme
Sanoma Corporation corrects its stock exchange release about the long-term share-based incentive programme published on 7 February 2024 at 8:40 EET. In the earlier release, the number of shares to be granted within the Performance Share Plan 2024−2026 was incorrectly presented at the target, not the maximum level. The corrected stock exchange release as a whole is available below.
The Board of Directors of Sanoma Corporation has approved the continuation of the Group’s long-term share-based incentive programme for approx. 240 employees. Under the annual share-based long-term incentive programmes originally announced on 7 February 2013 and 7 February 2014, a new Performance Share Plan (PSP) 2024−2026 and Restricted Share Plan 2024−2026 are introduced.
According to the Remuneration Policy adopted by the Annual General Meeting 2023, the performance period of the PSP may vary from one to three years. When approving the performance period and criteria of the annually commencing PSPs, the Board takes into account the recruitment and retention of key employees, the operating environment and the company’s continuing transformation and growth strategy. For PSP 2024−2026, the performance period is set to be one year.
Performance Share Plan 2024–2026
The performance measures for the Performance Share Plan 2024–2026 are based on adjusted free cash flow and adjusted earnings per share targets for 2024. The one-year performance period is followed by a two-year vesting period.
The share rewards payable, subject to the achievement of the performance measures, will be delivered to the participants in spring 2027, subject to meeting the continuous employment or good leaver ground conditions at the time of the payment. The share rewards to be paid will amount up to a maximum of 964,500 Sanoma shares (gross, before the deduction of related taxes).
Restricted Share Plan 2024–2026
The duration of the Restricted Share Plan commencing at the beginning of 2024 is three years. The share rewards payable based on the plan will be delivered to the participants in spring 2027. The share rewards to be paid will amount up to a maximum of 40,000 Sanoma shares (gross). The plan is introduced for specific, non-performance related remuneration needs.
