Repurchases may take place on one or several occasions in the period from September 11, 2020 up until the company’s next Annual General Meeting. Repurchases can be made up to a total amount of SEK 500 million, provided however that the group’s equity ratio, following a repurchase, shall not fall below the group’s target of 40 per cent. The repurchases may comprise such maximum number of series A shares that the company's holding of own shares at no time exceeds 10 per cent of the total number of shares in the company. The repurchases shall be made on Nasdaq Stockholm in accordance with its issuer rules, within the price range prevailing at each time between the highest bid price and the lowest selling price.

The purpose of the repurchases is to adjust the capital structure and thereby creating increased value for the company's shareholders. The company’s holding of own shares may ultimately be used as payment for or to finance acquisition of a company or a property. The group’s financial position is considered to be strong, even after the resolved repurchases of shares, and provides the possibility to continue to develop the business.
