The remuneration policy approved by Honkarakenne's Board of Directors has been discussed and approved at the company's Annual General Meeting 2024. The Remuneration Policy describes the practices and principles associated with remunerating Honkarakenne's Board members and the President & CEO.

This Remuneration Report discloses the remuneration of the members of the Company's Board of Directors and the President & CEO for the preceding financial year and compares the development of the average remuneration of Honkarakenne's employees and of the Company's financial performance to the development of the fees paid to the Company's governing bodies. This Remuneration Report describes how the Remuneration Policy has been implemented over the preceding financial year.

The remuneration of Honkarakenne is based on the following main principles presented in the Remuneration Policy:

  • The opportunity for overall remuneration must be sufficiently competitive in relation to the market level.
  • Performance-based incentives form part of the CEO's remuneration potential.
  • Some of the performance-based incentives emphasize long-termism, being linked to shareholder value development and the company's strategy.

The Company has not exercised the right to deviate from the Remuneration Policy nor exercised the option of clawback of remuneration in 2024.

Below is a comparable description of the remuneration paid to the Board members and President & CEO have developed during the previous five financial years in relation to the average remuneration development of the personnel and the financial development of the Group.

The increase in total remuneration of the Board of Directors since 2020 is explained by changes in the composition of the Board of Directors and an increase in remuneration in 2021. The weak market situation in the sector has led to a decrease in the CEO's compensation to its lowest level in the five-year review period. The remuneration paid in 2024 did not include short-term incentive-based rewards paid annually, as in previous years. The salaries of all employees have been reduced to a lower level due to the economic situation, the decrease in the number of employees and the increase in the number of temporary layoffs.

The terms of the President & CEO's remuneration and contract shall be decided by the Board. President & CEO remuneration has complied with the valid remuneration policy.

Long- and short-term incentive plans form the performance-based part of the President & CEO's remuneration. In 2023 the President & CEO had no long-term incentive plan in place.

S h o r t - t e r m i n c e n t i v e

Short-term, performance-based incentive (STI) plans are part of the President & CEO's annual remuneration system. Short-term, performance-based incentive plans are paid in cash.

In 2024, the CEO's short-term performance-based incentive plan was based on the Group's operating profit with a 90% weighting and on the accident frequency rate with a 10% weighting. The STI plan's reward level was formed linearly between zero reward and maximum reward. The target reward level enables 20% and the maximum bonus level 40% of the CEO's annual salary. The targets of the 2024 STI plan were not achieved, and no bonuses will be paid to the CEO in 2025 based on them.

L o n g - t e r m i n c e n t i v e

The Board decides on the performance criteria for the equity incentive plan and the targets set for each performance criterion at the beginning of the earning period. The potential rewards of the plan are paid after the end of each earning period.

Under the plan, the CEO has the opportunity to earn Honkarakenne Oyj's series B shares based on performance and personal investment in Honkarakenne Oyj's series B shares.

The maximum rewards payable to the CEO from the 2024-2026 plan correspond to 45,000 Honkarakenne Oyj's series B shares, some of which may be paid in cash to cover the tax consequences of receiving the shares.

The Equity Incentive Plan 2024-2026 has one earning period, and the rewards for the earning period were based on the Group's revenue and operating profit (EBIT). Based on the current assessment of the senior management, no rewards to be allocated to profit will be generated from the earning period 2024-2026 of the plan.

P e n s i o n p l a n

The President & CEO's pension cover has been organized with statutory pension cover that is based on length of service and earnings. The President & CEO's retirement age is determined by the Employees Pensions Act.

As part of the President & CEO's overall remuneration, supplementary pension cover of one month's salary was offered in addition to statutory cover. Supplementary pension cover was implemented as defined contribution plan.

C o n d i t i o n s f o r t e r m i n a t i o n

If the President & CEO's contract is terminated, the President & CEO's compensation will be determined on the basis of contractual obligations and the incentive plan's terms and conditions.

The executive employment contract specifies the President & CEO's period of notice and any severance pay. The President & CEO's notice period is six months on both sides. If the President & CEO's contract is terminated by the company, the President & CEO will also receive additional severance pay equivalent to six months' salary.
