The board of directors proposes that no dividend shall be paid for the financial year 2023/2024 and that the profit for the year shall be carried forward.
Item 9 – Determination of renumeration to be paid to board members and auditors
The Nomination Committee, consisting of Peter Liljeroos (chairman of the board of directors), Wael Mrad (private holding), Thomas Jonsson (elected by Furuhems Fastigheter AB) and Oscar Amilon Storsteinnes (private holding) (the ”Nomination Committee”), proposes that the board of directors, for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, shall be paid a total amount of not more than SEK 1,250,000 annually allocated as follows. The chairman shall receive SEK 500,000 and other board members not employed by the Company shall receive SEK 250,000 each. The Nomination Committee further proposes that the auditor, for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, shall be paid according to approved accounts.
Item 10 – Determination of the number of board members and deputy board members and auditors and deputy auditors
The Nomination Committee proposes that the Company’s board of directors shall consist of four board members without any deputy board members and that the Company shall have one auditor without deputy auditors for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting.
Item 11 – Election of the board of directors and auditor
The Nomination Committee proposes re-election of Henrik Vilselius, Nickolaj Johansson and Mikael Fallström as board members, and re-election of Peter Liljeroos as chairman of the board, all for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting. The Nomination Committee further proposes that the registered accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers AB is re-elected as auditor for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting. PricewaterhouseCoopers AB has informed that, provided that the proposal is approved by the meeting, the authorized accountant Johan Engstam will continue to be the auditor in charge.
Item 12 – Resolution on authorization for the board of directors to resolve on issue of shares, warrants and/or convertibles
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting shall resolve to authorize the board of directors to, on one or several occasions up until the next annual general meeting, resolve on issues of shares, warrants and/or convertibles. The issues may be made with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, as well as on terms regarding payment in kind, by right of set-off or against other terms.
The number of shares that may be issued under the authorization, and the increase of the share capital, shall not be limited other than by the limits for the number of shares and share capital as set out in the articles of association in its registered wording at each time. The board of directors shall otherwise have the right to determine all terms and conditions for the issue. The reason that the board of directors may resolve upon an issue with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is that the Company shall be able to issue new shares, warrants and/or convertibles in order to finance the Company’s continued operation and expansion.
The board of directors, the CEO, or anyone appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, shall be authorized to make such minor amendments to the above resolution as may be necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB or due to other formal requirements.
The resolution is only valid if supported by shareholders holding not less than two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the annual general meeting.
Shareholders’ right to request information
Upon request by any shareholder and where the board of directors believes that it may be done without significant harm to the Company, the board of directors and the CEO shall provide information of circumstances which may affect the assessment of a matter on the agenda, and circumstances which may affect the assessment of the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ financial situation and the Company’s relation to other companies within the group and the consolidated accounts.
