As previously announced today, 2 April 2025, the company's Annual General Meeting resolved to approve the proposal presented by the shareholder and supported by the Board of Directors on the combination of share classes and a directed issuance of shares without payment as well as amendments to the Articles of Association due to the combination of share classes. According to the decision, the Board of Directors is authorised to resolve on other terms and practical aspects of the directed issuance of shares without payment. The Board of Directors confirmed that the total number of new shares to be issued in the directed issuance of shares without payment related to the combination of share classes is 3,839,165.

The Company will announce the directed issuance of shares to be registered with the Finnish Trade Register simultaneously with the amendment to the Articles of Association, or as soon as possible thereafter.
