Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of own shares
The AGM authorized the Board of Directors to resolve on the acquisition of a maximum of 1,334,055 of the company’s own shares in one or more tranches using the company’s unrestricted equity.

The company may buy back shares in order to develop its capital structure, finance or implement any corporate acquisitions or other transactions, implement share-based incentive plans, pay board fees or otherwise transfer or cancel them.

The company may buy back shares in public trading on marketplaces whose rules and regulations allow the company to trade in its own shares. In such a case, the company buys back shares through a directed purchase, i.e. in a proportion other than its shareholders’ holdings of company shares, with the consideration paid for the shares based on their publicly quoted market price so that the minimum price of the purchased shares equals the lowest market price quoted in public trading during the authorization period and their maximum price equals the highest market price quoted in public trading during that period.

The authorization is effective until the end of the Annual General Meeting held in 2025, yet no further than until June 30, 2025. This authorization shall supersede the authorization granted at the Annual General Meeting of March 23, 2023.

This authorization is to be used to finance and implement any prospective corporate acquisitions or other transactions, to implement the company’s share-based incentive plans, or for other purposes determined by the Board.

The authorization grants the Board the right to decide on all terms and conditions governing the share issue and the granting of said special rights, including on the recipients of the shares or special rights and the amount of payable consideration. The authorization also includes the right to issue shares by deviating from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, i.e. by issuing them in a directed manner. The authorization of the Board covers both the issue of new shares and the transfer of any shares that may be held by the company.

The authorization is effective until the end of the Annual General Meeting held in 2025, yet no further than until June 30, 2025. This authorization shall supersede the issue authorization granted at the Annual General Meeting of March 23, 2023.
