The AGM authorized the Board, on one or several occasions during the period up to the next AGM, to make decisions on the repurchase of the company’s Series B shares up to an amount so that, at the given time following the acquisition, the company holds a maximum of 10 percent of all shares in the company. Purchases of shares are to be made on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price per share that is within the registered price interval for NCC’s Series B share at any given time. The purpose of the authorization is to give the Board greater scope to be able to adapt the company’s capital structure to the capital requirement from time to time.

The AGM authorized the Board, on one or several occasions during the period up to the next AGM, to make decisions on the transfer of a maximum of 200,000 Series B shares via Nasdaq Stockholm to cover costs, mainly costs for dividend compensation, social security fees and payments on the basis of the synthetic shares arising from previously outstanding long-term performance-based incentive programs (LTI 2019, LTI 2020 and LTI 2021).
