Moberg Pharma's Chairman Peter Wolpert becomes CEO of Industrifonden and is therefore not available for re-election
Peter Wolpert, Chairman of the Board since 2019 of Moberg Pharma AB (publ), has informed the Nomination Committee that he has been appointed CEO of Industrifonden starting from March 2022. Peter will complete his current term as chairman of the board but will not be available for reelection at the Annual General Meeting in May 2022.
Peter Wolpert has been CEO of Moberg Pharma since 2006 and became Chairman of the Board in 2019 in connection with the divestment of Moberg’s commercial OTC operations.
"We would like to thank Peter for his valuable contributions to Moberg Pharma as chairman in recent years and previously as CEO of the company. The Nomination Committee will present its complete proposal for a new Board of Directors, including Peter’s replacement, well in advance of the Annual General Meeting", says Gillis Cullin, Chairman of the Nomination Committee.
"Moberg Pharma is a very interesting company. We developed the company from the start to revenues of almost half a billion SEK before the commercial business was divested in 2019. The company's pipeline now includes MOB-015, which builds on previous successes and has demonstrated world-leading ability to cure patients from nail fungus. I look forward to continuing as Chairman until the AGM and to maintain close contact with the company as a major shareholder thereafter," says Peter Wolpert.
The 2021 Annual General Meeting for the fiscal year January – December 2021 will be held in Stockholm on May 16th. In regard to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic Moberg Pharma will continue to closely monitor the Public Health Agency of Sweden´s recommendations and inform its shareholders on potential impact of attending the AGM in person.
