Generalforsamlingen vil bli avholdt elektronisk i form av et Teams-møte. Aksjonærer som melder seg på innen den nevnte fristen må også sende en e-post til [email protected] for å få tilsendt innkalling til dette møtet.

I tråd med allmennaksjeloven § 1-8 samt forskrift om formidlere omfattet av verdipapirsentralloven § 4-5 og tilhørende gjennomføringsforordninger, sendes innkallingen kun til forvaltere som skal videreformidle til aksjeeiere de holder aksjer for. Eiere av forvalterregistrerte aksjer må kommunisere med sin forvalter som har ansvar for å formidle forhåndsstemmer, fullmakter og/eller påmelding til generalforsamlingen innen påmeldingsfristen den 14. mai 2024 videre til Selskapet.

Det gjøres oppmerksom på at fullmakt uten stemmeinstruks kan utløse flaggeplikt etter norsk rett. Innehav av en stemmefullmakt uten stemmeinstruks likestilles etter verdipapirhandelloven § 4-4 (1) nr. 7 med eierskap av aksjer med tilknyttet stemmerett. Dette betyr at fullmektigen vil ha plikt til å flagge fullmaktene dersom disse gjelder et antall aksjer som (sammen med fullmektigens eventuelle egne aksjer eller rettigheter til aksjer) når opp til eller overstiger tersklene for flaggeplikt i verdipapirhandelloven § 4- 2 første ledd.

4.877.419. Innenfor denne samlede beløpsrammen kan fullmakten benyttes flere ganger.

Fullmakten kan bare benyttes til å utstede aksjer som vederlag og til innhenting av ny egenkapital.

Fullmakten gjelder frem til ordinær generalforsamling i 2025, dog senest til 30. juni 2025.

The authority shall remain in force until the annual general meeting in 2025, but in no event later than 30 June 2025.

The pre-emptive rights of the shareholders under § 10-4 of the Public Limited Companies Act may be set aside.

The authority covers capital increases against contributions in cash and contributions other than in cash. The authority covers the right to incur special obligations for the Company, ref. § 10-2 of the Public Limited Companies Act. The authority covers resolutions on mergers in accordance with § 13-5 of the Public Limited Companies Act."

1. Key developments in remuneration

This report on remuneration to senior executives (the "Report") is prepared by the board of directors of Kid ASA. The Report has been prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Act 1997 section 6-16 b, the Norwegian Regulation on Guidelines and Report on Remuneration of Leading Employees of 2020 section 6 and the Norwegian Accounting Act section 7-31b.

The remuneration report for 2023 complies with the Remuneration Policy approved by the General Meeting in May 2021. The Policy is applicable for a period of four years unless material changes are proposed by the Board of Directors and can be found on the Company's website investor.kid.no. The remuneration policy is subject for a yearly review by the Board. No changes to the policy have been proposed for 2024. The Board of Directors will evaluate and update the remuneration policy before the Annual General Meeting in 2025.

The overall objective of the remuneration guidelines for the Executive Management is to attract, retain and motivate employees with the skills, qualifications and experience needed to maximize value creation for the Company and its shareholders. KID shall offer competitive terms to its Executive Management Team, and consequently, the remuneration of the Executive Management Team shall as far as possible be in line with the market level for remuneration of senior management in comparable companies. However, the remuneration of the Executive Management Team shall not be of a size or nature which is liable to harm the Company's reputation.

The remuneration of the Board is approved by the General Meeting. The Board of Directors are not eligible to participate in any incentive arrangements operated by KID and receive a fixed annual fee.

The Remuneration Policy, adopted by the general meeting 2021, have been fully implemented. No deviations from the Remuneration Guidelines have been decided and no derogations from the procedure for implementation of the Remuneration Guidelines have been made. No remuneration has been reclaimed by the Company during the reported financial year. The Remuneration Report will be presented to the Annual General Meeting 2024 for an advisory vote.

1.1 Overall Company performance

Revenues for 2023 increased by 7.4% to MNOK 3,413.6 (MNOK 3,178.0). The like-for-like sales growth was 3.9 % and online sales grew by 17.6%, accounting for 12.2 % of total revenues. Gross margin was 61.5 % (58.1 %) for 2023. Other operating expenses including IFRS 16 and employee benefit expenses, ended at 35.7 % of revenues in line with 35.7 % in 2022. Operating profit (EBIT) was MNOK 480.4, up from MNOK 369.2, driven by increased revenues and gross margin.

In accordance with the Remuneration Policy, the remuneration of the Executive Management consists of a fixed annual salary and performance-based bonuses. Since the targets of the short- and long-term incentive plans are linked to the Company's profitability targets, the development of the Company's business operations is reflected in the remuneration paid to the Executive Management. For further details on the Company's performance in 2023, reference is made to the Company's consolidated annual accounts for 2023, available at https://investor.kid.no.

1. 2 Key developments in Board remuneration

The Nomination Committee is responsible for preparing matters related to the election and remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors for the General Meeting. At the General Meeting in May 2023 the chairman of the Board and two Board members were re-elected. Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting approved to adjust the Board remuneration based on the levels of remuneration for elected members of

Boards of Directors in comparable companies. The General Meeting resolved that the remuneration of the Board of Directors for the previous twelve months should be as followed (TNOK):

2022 2023
Chairperson:
Fee 500 525

Fee 365 385
Number of members 4 5
Additional fee to audit committee:
Fee 14 per meeting 15 per meeting
Number of members 2 3
Nomination committee:
Chairperson 40 45
Member 40 40
Number of members 2 2

No Board member has taken on additional tasks in the company outside their normal duties during the year.

1. 3 Key developments in Executive Management remuneration

During the year, there has been a change in the composition of the Executive Management. Eystein Lund resigned as CFO and worked until 31 March 2023, while Mads Kigen started as new CFO 1 July 2023. The remuneration in 2023 was in line with the approved Remuneration policy. The remuneration level is a result of business results, individual performance and alignment with competitive terms. The increase in total remuneration compared to 2022 is due to higher bonus provisions, positive change in the long-term incentive plan from 2021 as well as adjustments of base salary.

The incentive plans are based on financial targets aligned with the strategic ambition. As a result of higher financial performance in 2023, both the short-term and the long-term programs resulted in 100% bonus. In 2022, the short-term incentive and long-term incentive program resulted in 0% of maximum bonus.
