CapMan Plc’s directed share issue without payment to implement reward payments under Performance Share Plan
CapMan Plc’s Board of Directors has on 2 May 2024 resolved on a directed share issue without payment to implement the share reward payments under CapMan’s 2022 Performance Share Plan (the “Share Issue”). The reward was earned based on the total shareholder return of CapMan during the 2022 Performance Share Plan’s first performance period that commenced on 1 April 2022 and ended on 31 March 2023. The resolution on the Share Issue is based on the authorization granted to the Board of Directors by the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on 27 March 2024.
A total of 356,062 new shares will be issued without payment (the “New Shares”) to the key employees belonging to the scope of the 2022 Performance Share Plan pursuant to the terms and conditions of the plan. The Board of Directors has also resolved that the rewards will be paid partly in cash to cover personal taxes and tax-related costs arising to the key employees based on the reward.
The New Shares are intended to be registered with the Trade Register on or about 7 May 2024 and will entitle to dividend and confer all other shareholders’ rights as from that date. The company intends to apply for the admission of the New Shares to trading on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd on or about 8 May 2024. Following the registration of the New Shares, the total number of shares in the Company will be 176,878,210 shares.
The Company has one investment-based long-term incentive plan in place, i.e. the 2022 Performance Share Plan. Further information on the 2022 Performance Share Plan is available in a stock exchange release published by the Company on 16 March 2022 and on the Company’s website https://capman.com/shareholders/share-shareholders/performance-share-plans/.
