The board summons an extra general meeting on 11 December 2026 to cut share capital by 969,449,728.67 kronor and authorize buybacks of up to 10% of all shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, aimed at adapting the capital structure to increase shareholder value. A buyback mandate is generally shareholder-friendly, but it is only a proposal needing a two-thirds majority and approval from Bolagsverket or a court, and the company currently has no distributable amount.
