The AGM resolved that the Board of Directors be authorised to decide on purchases of the company’s own shares in accordance with the following, main terms:

  2. The authorisation may be exercised on one or more occasions before the 2024 Annual General Meeting.

  4. Repurchases of the company’s own shares on Nasdaq Stockholm may only be made at a price of no more than 5% above the average trading price of the 5 business days prior to the repurchase.
  5. Payment for the shares shall be made in cash.

In addition, the AGM resolves to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on transfer of own shares, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, in accordance with the following, main terms:

  1. Transfers may be made on (i) Nasdaq Stockholm or (ii) outside of Nasdaq Stockholm in connection with the acquisition of companies, operations, or assets.
  2. The authorisation may be exercised on one or more occasions before the 2024 Annual General Meeting.

  5. Payment for transferred shares may be made in cash, through in-kind payment, or through set-off against claims with the company.

The Board of Directors shall have the right to decide on other terms for repurchases and transfers of own shares in accordance with its authorisation. The Board of Directors also has the right to authorise the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, or the person designated by the Board to make such minor adjustments that may be necessary in connection with the execution of the Board’s decision to repurchase or transfer shares.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
