Trustees and providers will need robust approaches and strong governance to stay in line with best practice, emerging guidance and standards when deploying AI.
London, Tuesday 2nd June 2026 – Pension reforms will create a step change in what trustees and providers need to get from the data they hold with AI methods set to be a critical enabler of how data is analysed and managed in the best interest of members.However, the real challenge will be getting the governance and controls right, including use of human oversight and ‘humans in the loop,’ according to Lumera, a leading insurtech company. Trustees and providers will require robust approaches to AI, alongside clear governance frameworks with strong controls and human oversight, to stay in line with best practice, emerging guidance and standards when deploying AI, because the UK is taking a principles-based approach to AI regulation.This means that individual industry regulators will provide guidelines for firms but otherwise trustees and providers will need to establish their own robust operating models, which include human oversight, and governance approaches.This is significant given the centrality of AI reforms to implementing the swathe of pension reforms contained within the Pension Schemes Act, the newly launched Targeted Support regime and the further changes likely following the conclusion of the Pensions Commission. Default retirement pathways, Value for Money assessments and small pots consolidation will all increase the need for providers to make better use of their data to support automated decision making and matching as well as standardised benchmarking. This backdrop creates a clear expectation that providers will need to further their adoption of AI, but do so in a way that improves member outcomes while maintaining trust.To achieve this, providers will need to create their operating and governance models within the boundaries of data protection rules and regulations, and to have the flexibility to adapt their models as regulatory guidance evolves, such as the guidance on the responsible adoption of AI expected later in 2026 from the Pensions Regulator.Operating models will need to cover a range of AI techniques, such as clustering to identify patterns in data, classification to support consistent decisions, and ongoing monitoring to identify changes in behaviour and inform appropriate actions.These models will need to ensure that all uses of AI follow a well governed path where human involvement is clearly defined - whether in the form of oversight activities, or through the incorporation of ‘humans in the loop’ to regularly handle and review outputs. They will also include policy controls, routing decisions and guardrails to provide a tightly controlled governance framework with defined intervention points.Sami Saadaoui, Head of AI Architecture and Operations at Lumera, commented: “AI is set to become a critical enabler of the next phase of pension reform as the industry digests and begins to implement the Pension Schemes Act. “Schemes and providers will need to leverage AI to deliver more personalised member outcomes, support automated processes at greater scale and improve the consistency of decision-making across increasingly complex datasets.“However, the real challenge is not simply adopting AI, but deploying it within a robust governance and control framework. Pension providers and trustees will need clear accountability, strong human oversight and transparent decision-making processes to ensure AI is being used responsibly and in members’ best interests.“The UK’s principles-based approach to AI regulation means firms cannot rely on prescriptive rulebooks alone. Instead, they will need to demonstrate that their operating models, controls and governance frameworks are sufficiently robust to manage risks around bias, data quality, explainability and consumer outcomes.“The current swathe of reforms significantly increases the volume and complexity of data that needs to be processed and analysed. Firms need the scalable technology and human expertise to ensure that AI is unleashed to its full potential within defined guardrails.“Those that manage this best will be best placed to capitalise on a new era of pension saving and access in the UK, delivering better outcomes and maintaining trust with members.”For more information, please contact:Peter Roos, CCO, Lumera: +44 7552 861 411, peter.roos@lumera.comChristine Blinke, CMO, Lumera: +46 73 901 02 01, christine.blinke@lumera.com

The Lokomotion technology center will form a modern and resource-efficient production and technology hub where technologies, equipment, and components for the production of aggregates and sand are designed, tested, and manufactured. The technology center is estimated to be fully completed in the early 2030s.
“Starting the second phase of the Lokomotion project strengthens the overall Lahdesjärvi technology center and creates the foundation for starting crusher production in a new, modern facility. Altogether, this is a significant investment of over EUR 200 million, which will improve our global delivery capability and support our position as a market leader in aggregates solutions,” says Markku Simula, President of Metso’s Aggregates business area.
“Metso has been a key part of Tampere’s industrial history for decades, and we continue to develop our operations in the area with a long-term perspective. The Lokomotion technology center is the largest industrial investment in Tampere in this century and plays an important role in developing the regional industrial ecosystem. The investment supports competence development, employment, and sustainable industrial growth,” Simula continues.
Construction of the second phase to start in June
The second phase of the Lokomotion project at Lahdesjärvi will expand the first phase’s assembly and logistics facilities currently under construction. Construction will begin with groundwork in June 2026, and crusher production at the new factory is expected to start in autumn 2028. Construction will proceed in parallel with the first phase, enabling a phased commissioning.
The total building area of the technology center is approximately 66,000 m², of which the second phase accounts for about 12,000 m².
First phase progressing on schedule
Construction of the first phase began in June 2024 and is progressing according to the overall schedule. The first phase is scheduled to be completed in August 2027. It includes assembly and testing facilities for mobile crushers, as well as warehouse facilities. Work on interior building services and structural engineering is currently underway at the construction site.

Most countries fall into the highest risk category
Globally, the analysis classifies 91 countries as high risk for LGBTQ travelers. Another 62 countries are rated medium risk, and 80 are considered low risk.
Compared with last year, conditions have worsened in several countries, including Belarus, Burkina Faso, India, Japan, Kazakhstan, Senegal, Slovakia, and the United States. The reasons vary but include restrictions on existing rights, legal rollbacks, harsher penalties, and new limitations on the recognition of gender identity and on travel documents.
Regional differences continue to grow
Western Europe remains the safest region for LGBTQ travelers, with all countries in the region classified as low risk in the latest analysis.
By contrast, the Middle East and North Africa continue to include some of the world’s highest-risk destinations for LGBTQ travelers. Most countries in the region are classified as high risk, with Israel rated low risk and Lebanon rated medium risk.
In Sub-Saharan Africa, the situation remains highly challenging. Approximately 80 percent of assessed countries in the region fall into the highest risk category. The deterioration is particularly evident in Burkina Faso and Senegal. Following the 2022 military coup, Burkina Faso enacted its first law criminalizing same-sex relations. In Senegal, prison sentences for same-sex relations have doubled.
In Europe and Eurasia, new legal restrictions have led to lower ratings for individual countries. Kazakhstan has imposed restrictions on information about so-called “non-traditional sexual orientations,” while Slovakia has further limited the rights of same-sex couples. Belarus has adopted a law against so-called “LGBT propaganda,” which could result in fines or even arrests.
Setbacks have also been recorded in Asia. In India, new legislation seeks to restrict transgender people’s ability to self-identify. In Japan, a court upheld the constitutionality of the country’s ban on same-sex marriage.
In North America, the United States has tightened rules for travel documents. Passports will reflect only the sex assigned at birth, and the “X” gender marker will no longer be recognized.
At the same time, the analysis also shows areas of progress. Botswana and St. Lucia have repealed laws criminalizing same-sex relations between men, resulting in improved ratings in this year’s map.
“LGBTQ travelers face very different realities depending on where they travel. In some destinations, the risk may be primarily social. In others, it may be legal, with serious consequences,” said Magnus Hultman, CEO of Safeture. “For organizations, this makes it essential to understand destination-specific risks before travel and to ensure that travelers have access to relevant information, communication, and support if something happens.”
The LGBTQ Risk Map 2026 is now available as a free download. It offers companies, travel managers, security teams, and travelers a practical overview to support safer international travel planning.

Saab designs, manufactures and maintains advanced systems in aeronautics, weapons, command and control, sensors and underwater systems. Saab is headquartered in Sweden. It has major operations all over the world and is part of the domestic defense capability of several nations.
On 2 June Saab had a rollout of the first Gripen F fighter to the Brazilian Air Force during a ceremony held at Saab´s facilities in Linköping, Sweden.
Gripen F is the two-seat variant of the Gripen E series and has been developed to meet the training and operational requirements of modern air forces by combining conversion training and combat capability on the same platform.
As the launch customer, Brazil played an active role in the co development of the two-seat variant, enabling direct industrial participation and long-term cooperation. Through an extensive transfer-of-technology programme, Brazil has trained hundreds of engineers and technicians while strengthening the advanced design and development expertise within its national industrial base.
“The rollout of Gripen F represents a shared achievement between Saab, Brazilian industry and the Brazilian Air Force, reflecting the deep trust we have built together over many years. Developing this aircraft together demonstrates the maturity of this collaboration. It represents not only a highly capable fighter for the Brazilian Air Force, but also the tangible outcome of sustained joint development and shared ambition,” says Lars Tossman, head of Saab’s business area Aeronautics.
Designed for an era of rapid transformation, Gripen F delivers world-class performance, sensors, and revolutionary architecture, mirroring Gripen E. The addition of a fully independent second cockpit enables instructor-guided missions in a fully operational fighter, giving trainee pilots realistic live mission conditions. Consequently, pilot conversion and preparatory training can be dramatically accelerated compared to conventional time, while enhancing operational effectiveness in high-threat environments through shared workload and improved mission command.
Before final delivery to the Brazilian Air Force the aircraft will be transferred to Saab’s Flight Test Centre in Sweden, where it will start a dedicated flight test campaign.
The 2014 contract with the Brazilian government covers the development and production of 36 fighter aircraft: 28 Gripen E and eight Gripen F. Deliveries began in 2020 and to date 11 aircraft have been handed over. Saab has also received Gripen F orders from Thailand and Colombia.

Arendal, Norway, 2 June 2026 -- Norse Atlantic ASA ("Norse Atlantic" or the "Company") was notified by Interglobe Aviation Limited ("IndiGo") of the redelivery of one out of six aircraft operated on ACMI charter due to the closure of a UK route. The aircraft will be redelivered to Norse Atlantic 31 August 2026. IndiGo will continue to operate all its remaining aircraft leased from Norse Atlantic as planned.
Following redelivery, the aircraft will be deployed by Norse Atlantic in its upcoming winter program for direct flights between Europe and Thailand.
“With the additional aircraft, we look forward to deploying extra capacity on our successful and profitable Thailand routes. We also continue to strengthen our strong partnership with IndiGo and have jointly initiated a strategic collaboration project to assess new and deeper cooperation”, says Eivind Roald, CEO of Norse Atlantic.
Abhijit Dasgupta, Senior Vice President - Network Planning & Revenue Management, IndiGo, says, “We inducted these leased wide-body aircraft to fast-track our connectivity to high potential long-haul destinations such as Manchester and witnessed very encouraging demand response. It is, therefore, unfortunate that longer flying times due to airspace constraints combined with dramatically escalating costs compelled us to take the decision to discontinue India – Manchester services. The response and support for these services have reinforced our belief in the opportunity for IndiGo’s long-haul ambitions, and we are convinced that this discontinuation is temporary. We look forward to serving this route again at the earliest viable opportunity and are exploring innovative solutions to continuing our collaboration with Norse Atlantic Airways.”
Norse Atlantic commenced ACMI operations for IndiGo in March 2025, with a total of six Boeing 787-9 aircraft progressively deployed through early 2026.

EQT Real Estate is pleased to announce that the EQT Real Estate Europe Logistics Value Fund V has acquired a portfolio of six logistics assets totaling approximately 1.6 million square feet across Leamington Spa, Didcot, Peterborough and Kettering from Tritax Big Box REIT plc.
The assets are fully leased following completion of the lease at Leamington I and are occupied by a diversified tenant base across e-commerce, logistics, publishing, healthcare and consumer industries. Strategically located near major transport routes including the M40, A14, and A1(M) which connect cities including London, Birmingham and Edinburgh, the properties provide access to key UK population centers and established distribution networks.
The portfolio consists of modern Grade A properties featuring high clear heights, large loading yards and strong sustainability credentials, with most assets holding Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) A ratings. The acquisition further expands EQT Real Estate’s UK logistics footprint and complements its broader European logistics portfolio across key distribution corridors and consumption hubs. The investment aligns with EQT Real Estate’s strategy of investing in high-quality logistics assets in supply-constrained markets that are supported by resilient occupier demand and long-term rental growth potential.
Jonathan Mackie, Managing Director at EQT Real Estate, said: “We continue to see attractive long-term opportunities in European logistics, supported by structural trends including the growth of online retail, supply chain optimization and increasing demand for efficient distribution space close to major population centers. This acquisition expands our growing UK logistics footprint and complements our broader European logistics portfolio across established distribution markets.”

The company's sales of electrified models – fully electric and plug-in hybrid models – accounted for 48 per cent of all cars sold during the three-month period. Fully electric cars comprised 23 per cent of all cars sold for the period, and plug-in hybrid models accounted for 25 per cent.
The automotive industry, including the premium segment, continues to face intensifying headwinds across regions which reflected in the sales performance for the three-month period ending May 2026.
Sales in China remain under pressure, as overall industry volumes continue to decline in double-digits for consecutive months. This is due to the highly competitive industry landscape and challenging macro environment.
In the US, there are early signs of a recovery for both the industry and Volvo Cars, which is reflected in the gradual improvement in deliveries. However, the overall market still remains impacted by low customer sentiment and subdued demand for fully electric and plug-in hybrid cars post subsidy removal.
“Despite all the external challenges, we continue to grow in Europe through electrification,” said Erik Severinson, Chief Commercial Officer at Volvo Cars. “Overall, deliveries of our fully electric cars grew for the eighth consecutive month driven by the strong demand for the EX30 and EX40 electric SUVs in Europe. We have also seen sustained and strong increase in retail orders for our fully electric models in the region, which further reinforces our strategy to become a leader in premium electrification.”
"Additionally, we are excited to receive overwhelmingly positive reviews of our new EX60 fully electric SUV from our customers and the media. Initial customer orders for the car have already surpassed our internal expectations. We are now gearing up to gradually ramp up the production of the car in the second half of the year.”

REYKJAVÍK – Infrastructure marketing is notoriously difficult to make exciting. Yet, a brilliant creative initiative out of Iceland has done the unthinkable: it turned pothole complaints into an award-winning, globally discussed marketing phenomenon.
The "¡Hola!" campaign, launched by the road-paving giant Colas Ísland in collaboration with advertising agency Pipar/TBWA, has caught the attention of international marketing circles after completely sweeping Iceland’s prestigious advertising awards (Lúðurinn) and winning Áran—the title for the most effective campaign of the year.
The Icelandic Context: A Brilliant Linguistic Twist
Aired across Icelandic television, billboards, and digital media, the campaign capitalized on a genius linguistic coincidence. While the Spanish word "¡Hola!" is a cheerful greeting, phonetically it sounds identical to "hola", the Icelandic word for a pothole.
Instead of hiding from public frustration regarding worn-down winter roads, Colas leaned directly into the problem. They introduced the world to Nicolas, a fictional, overly enthusiastic "pothole lover" who traveled across Iceland's rugged road networks, cheerfully saying "hello" (¡Hola!) to every crater he encountered on TV and social media.
Beyond the Screen: Driving Political and Civic Action
What started as a humorous broadcast campaign quickly evolved into a massive public engagement project. The initiative featured several highly strategic pillars that turned viral laughs into real-world impact:
· The Ruined Roads Guidebook (Ónýtuvegahandbókin): Colas published a comprehensive, tongue-in-cheek guidebook mapping out the worst road damage across the country, effectively pressure-testing local authorities to step up infrastructure budgets. · Interactive Civic Tracking: Icelandic drivers and cyclists were invited to actively participate by reporting road issues, transforming a public nuisance into a proactive community effort. · Humanizing the Crew: The ads cleverly shifted public perspective, turning road maintenance workers from an "inconvenience that causes traffic" into community heroes fixing the infrastructure.
Why the International Marketing World is Watching
International branding experts are pointing to the Icelandic campaign as a prime example of "flawpop" marketing—taking a company's most glaring industry challenge and turning it into their greatest asset.
"Colas Iceland didn't just ask for patience; they created a shared cultural moment out of a universal frustration," noted an international creative director during an ad-industry review. "By using humor and local wordplay, they took the heat off their brand and put the focus on collaborative solutions."
With its recent clean sweep at the 2026 Icelandic marketing awards, the "¡Hola!" campaign has proven that even the most mundane industries can achieve international creative acclaim. It stands as a reminder to companies worldwide that sometimes, the best way to fix a problem is to look it in the face and simply say hello.
Technology group Wärtsilä has secured a contract for 452 MW of power generation equipment and a long-term Operation and Maintenance (O&M) agreement with the Pecos Power Plant, owned by Mercuria Americas and Continental Resources. This milestone project, located in Pecos, Texas, USA, is designed to deliver flexible generation to maintain grid reliability in a power system with rapidly growing renewable penetration. Wärtsilä booked an initial order for 226MW in Q1 2025, increased the order by 226MW in Q3 2025, and the O&M agreement was signed in Q4 2025.
The Pecos Power Plant, developed by Peak Reliability (a Mercuria Company) in partnership with Wärtsilä, combines proven development expertise with advanced power generation technology to deliver reliable and efficient energy to West Texas. The facility consists of 24 Wärtsilä 1850SG reciprocating engines that help meet the region’s growing electricity demand. Overall, the project highlights Wärtsilä’s capability in delivering comprehensive power plant solutions and underscores the company’s growing role as a lifecycle partner for large-scale independent power producers.
“The flexibility of Wärtsilä’s technology will allow us to maximize our operational efficiency in an increasingly volatile power market. This further allows us to reliably serve our customers when they need power most. The region is experiencing record-breaking demand for electricity, and this project will play an important role in meeting this demand,” says Martin Parizek, Managing Director of Peak Reliability.
The development effort led by the Peak Reliability team in strong collaboration with the Project Development team of Wärtsilä played a pivotal role in enabling the project to deliver power to the grid quickly. This natural gas plant will bring critical dispatchable energy generation to an area of ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) that is situated in one of the world's largest pools of renewable energy. In addition to enhancing the reliability of the ERCOT grid, the power plant will also support west Texas industries and businesses through low cost, efficient, reliable power.
"Wärtsilä understands the pressing need to meet growing power demand with solutions that support energy supply, reliability and sustainability. By supporting delivery of end-to-end power supply projects from concept to execution, Wärtsilä is driving customer efficiency by reducing risks and time to market. Furthermore, our world-class expertise in operating and maintaining plants allows customers to focus on their core business, while we ensure optimal performance,” comments Risto Paldanius, Vice President, Americas at Wärtsilä Energy.
The Operation and Maintenance agreement covers the full buildout of the project, forming a significant O&M power plant project for Wärtsilä Energy. With this agreement, Wärtsilä will be responsible for ensuring the long-term performance, availability and reliability of the plant, supporting secure power supply in the ERCOT system.
The plant is expected to commence commercial operations in 2027.

The ATP has signed a multi-year partnership with leading global investment organisation EQT, which will be the first official private markets partner of the ATP Tour through 2030.
As a governing body of men's professional tennis, ATP stages premier tournaments across six continents and showcases the world’s greatest players.
This represents EQT’s first-ever global sports sponsorship at a pivotal time in the firm’s growth. As EQT adds new strategies and products, enters new markets, and broadens access to private markets, building global brand recognition is becoming increasingly critical. This partnership provides access to a global platform across major markets with a broad, high-value audience.
The partnership with the ATP coincides with EQT’s global brand relaunch, “Better Never Ends”, linking its belief in continuous improvement with the pursuit of progress at the heart of professional tennis.
The agreement supports the ATP’s strategy to build deeper, multi-market partnerships that drive growth and deliver value across the Tour. A dedicated activation programme will create opportunities for players to participate in partner-led moments, while integrating some of the sport’s leading athletes into EQT’s brand campaigns.
As a Platinum Partner, EQT will activate across ATP Masters 1000, ATP 500 and ATP 250 tournaments throughout the season, connecting with a global audience of more than one billion fans. The partnership includes prominent brand visibility, alongside access to premium hospitality and stakeholder engagement opportunities across key international markets.
Per Franzen, EQT’s Managing Partner & CEO, said: "An ever-larger share of value creation in the global economy is happening in private markets, and individual investors want access to that opportunity. As the largest private markets firm outside the U.S., EQT has both the scale and responsibility to help make that a reality. That is why we decided to partner with the ATP, which has the right platform to build EQT's brand recognition among our target audiences around the world. We are proud to partner with an organization that, like EQT, is defined by long-term thinking, high performance, and a truly global ambition."
Andrea Gaudenzi, ATP Chairman, said: “The scale of this partnership and its global footprint reflect EQT’s commitment to the ATP Tour. It’s an exciting moment for both organisations and another step in our focus on working with brands that share our values and are invested in the long-term future of tennis. EQT is a natural fit, with a shared emphasis on long-term performance, active growth and sustainable value creation for players, fans and commercial partners.”
The announcement builds on a period of record sponsorship growth for the ATP, underlining the strength of the Tour as a premium platform for brand visibility, business engagement and international expansion.

Anders Ramsten managed £140 billion of retail fund assets at Swedbank. Institutions have access to professional fund evaluation tools. Everyday investors never did. PowerFunds is the result.
Millions of British savers have their largest single investment, in many cases bigger than their house, in a fund a consultant or they themselves chose years ago. Nobody has reviewed it since. The information needed to evaluate those funds exists. What ordinary investors receive instead is simplified marketing and curated lists. PowerFunds is putting that information where it belongs: in the hands of the people whose money is actually at stake.
British savers can now check for free whether the funds they already own are among the best, and see where stronger-rated alternatives exist. PowerFunds rates every fund on two levels: how strong the category is, and how well the fund performs compared with the best index fund in the same investment category, based on long-term returns and fees. Each fund receives one of four clear ratings: Leading, Performing, Middling or Lagging. For £10 a month, PowerFunds monitors every fund a subscriber holds, alerting them the moment one starts to slip.
"The biggest risk for many investors is not choosing the wrong fund. It is staying in the wrong fund for years without realising it. We have created the first monitoring layer for retail investors that is structurally independent of the funds it assesses." — Anders Ramsten, founder of PowerFunds
Only 8.6% of UK adults received regulated financial advice in the past year, according to the FCA's Financial Lives 2024 survey. S&P SPIVA's Europe Year-End 2024 report found that 93% of actively managed equity funds underperformed their benchmark over ten years. Based on analysis of UK fund performance data, on a £100,000 investment, that gap can exceed £140,000 over twenty years of investing. Same type of fund, different choice. For most savers, that gap is the difference between retiring when they choose to and working until they have to.
PowerFunds has secured seed funding from Symvan Capital, a London-based venture capital firm. With more than 7,000 users already on the platform, PowerFunds is now scaling up across the UK and Swedish markets.
"At Symvan, we back teams with strong vision, clear market opportunity and the ability to execute. PowerFunds' focus on improving outcomes for everyday investors stood out immediately." — Kealan Doyle, CEO, Symvan Capital
PowerFunds does not manage money or provide investment advice.

Comments from Torbjörn Kronander, President and CEO of Sectra AB
“Digitization, AI and increasing security requirements are drivers that are fundamentally changing how both we and our customers work. For us, this is about embracing change and converting new technologies into customer value. With a corporate culture that encourages innovation and ideas, and puts them into practice, we are continuing to strengthen Sectra’s position in medical IT and cybersecurity—areas where our solutions make a difference in people’s lives, health and safety all over the world.
“The Group’s net sales exceeded SEK 1 billion for the first time in a single quarter. This positive performance was made possible as a result of satisfied and loyal customers. All of our operating areas are growing and reporting increased operating profit, despite the negative impact of currency effects and delays in product deliveries in Secure Communications.
“Our ongoing transformation of the business model from software sales to service deliveries helped to increase the total share of recurring revenue by 5 percentage points to close to 70% during the fiscal year. This also led to a more even performance between quarters compared with our past seasonal trends, which is clear from our earnings outcomes for the last three quarters.
“AI is an enormous wave rolling in and no one knows exactly how it will affect the future. We are choosing to ride this wave and course-correct as we go, rather than paddling behind and struggling to catch up.
“At a time when politics, technology and business risks are becoming increasingly interconnected, our ability to combine innovation with high security and long-term trust is growing in importance. We will continue capitalizing on this and other strengths to make the world a healthier and safer place. Our stable financial position gives us the ability to continue investing in innovation and capacity for the future. Together with our customers, we are shaping and driving developments forward, which means that our speed is a crucial strength. The trust we receive from our customers is not something we take for granted. We must continue to earn it and build on it every day.”

In addition, the Company has received non-binding intentions to subscribe for BTC PREF from all members of the Board of Directors and certain members of management of BTC AB, corresponding to approximately SEK 2.4 million, equivalent to approximately 10.2 percent of the Rights Issue. The intentions to subscribe are not legally binding and do not constitute formal commitments to subscribe.The estimated date for announcement of the outcome of the Rights Issue is 2 July 2026.If the Rights Issue is oversubscribed, the Board of Directors may, in whole or in part, pursuant to the authorisation granted by the 2026 Annual General Meeting, resolve on an Over-allotment Issue of a maximum of 83,333 shares, corresponding to issue proceeds of a maximum of approximately SEK 10.0 million before issue costs.

As a dedicated operator in Bitcoin treasury management, BTC AB focuses on acquiring, securing and maintaining Bitcoin as part of a long-term capital strategy.The Rights Issue is carried out to strengthen the Company’s capital base and support the continued execution of the Company’s Bitcoin treasury strategy. The net proceeds are intended to be used primarily for additional acquisitions of bitcoin and for liquidity reserve purposes related to the Company’s preference share structure.The preference share structure is intended to allow BTC AB to raise equity capital without creating debt or large repayment obligations.

The first day of trading is expected to be on or around 20 July 2026.Following the directed issue of preference shares in December 2025, the Company now seeks to broaden its shareholder base through the Rights Issue, and the Listing provides an organised secondary market and transparent pricing for existing and new holders. The preference share is a key part of the Company's financing strategy, as the Board considers it an effective instrument for raising capital for its Bitcoin treasury strategy without increasing financial leverage or diluting ordinary shareholders.The Rights IssueThe Board of Directors has resolved to carry out the Rights Issue. For each existing Class B share held on the record date, one (1) subscription right will be received. Four (4) subscription rights will entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) BTC PREF.

Second, allotment shall be made to others who have subscribed for BTC PREF without subscription rights, and, in the event that allotment to these subscribers cannot be made in full, allotment shall be made pro rata in relation to the number of BTC PREF subscribed for by each person and, to the extent this cannot be done, by drawing of lots.Subscription undertakingsA number of external investors have entered into subscription undertakings to subscribe for BTC PREF in the Rights Issue, corresponding in aggregate to approximately SEK 6.3 million, equivalent to approximately 27.1 percent of the Rights Issue. The individual subscription undertakings are set out in the table below. The subscription undertakings are not secured through bank guarantees, blocked funds, pledges or similar arrangements.

The Over-allotment Issue may comprise up to 83,333 shares, corresponding to maximum issue proceeds of approximately SEK 10.0 million before issue costs. The terms of any Over-allotment Issue will be the same as those of the Rights Issue. When resolving on the Over-allotment Issue, the Board of Directors shall determine allotment in accordance with the principles for allotment applied in the Rights Issue. The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to accommodate a higher demand than initially anticipated in the event of oversubscription in the Rights Issue, and to enable the Company to receive additional issue proceeds in such case. The right to subscribe for shares in the Over-allotment Issue shall accrue to those who have subscribed for shares in the Rights Issue without receiving full allotment.The Over-allotment Issue means that the share capital may increase by a maximum of an additional SEK 41.6665 and that the number of shares may increase by a maximum of an additional 83,333 shares, which, together with the Rights Issue, corresponds to a dilution of approximately 0.028 percent of the share capital and approximately 0.005 percent of the votes in the Company following registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.AdvisorsEminova Partners acts as financial advisor in connection with the Rights Issue.
