To the board of Selvaag Bolig ASA
At the annual general meeting in 2023, the following people were elected to the nomination committee:
The nomination committee has had discussions with the chair, the CEO of the company and the CEO of Selvaag AS. In its work, the nomination committee also relied on an external board evaluation which was done in February and March 2025.
The company has expressed the need for a director with experience from the Swedish housing market, and especially in the Stockholm region.
To assist us in the search, we engaged NOVARE Executive Search represented by Christian Agneskog who cooperated with the recruitment company Visindi represented by Christian Heiberg in Oslo.
The board has the following shareholder-elected directors:
Olav H. Selvaag (chair), Gisele Marchand (deputy chair), Tore Myrvold, Øystein Thorup and Camilla Wahl.
All shareholder-elected directors are up for election in 2025. Camilla Wahl has informed that due to personal reasons she does not wish to be re-elected.
The nomination committee's assessment is that the board is an entity that represents a broad professional insight related to the industry, markets, residential housing development expertise and solid legal, economic and financial experience and understanding.
The board has expressed a wish to strengthen expertise about the Swedish market based on the company's increased activity in the Stockholm region in recent years.
The industry is characterised by demanding planning approval processes, high construction costs as well as challenges related to interest costs and financing for many customers. This applies to the activity in Norway as well as in Sweden.
The nomination committee's assessment is that the board handles the company's challenges with a good understanding of the business and a well-functioning collaboration internally and with the administration.
The nomination committee proposes that the general meeting re-elects for one year the following directors:
In addition, the following person is proposed as a new director:
• Josefine Wikström (51) has an MSc in engineering. She has extensive experience from city and housing development from both Skanska AB and JM AB. Since 2012 she has served as project manager, market area manager, and, most recently, as head of new residential projects at Ikano Bostad AB. She has shown a strong engagement in innovative housing solutions and has contributed to increased profitability in Ikano's activities in housing development. She has broad experience with directorships in the Ikano system.
The nomination committee emphasises the overall competence that the proposed board represents and proposes that the general meeting elects the board as an entity.
The nomination committee proposes that the general meeting re-elects for one year all the proposed members:
The nomination committee is considered to have a composition which ensures sufficient independence, but also a broad understanding of the activities of the company, its market areas and the interests of shareholders.
The nomination committee supports the Norwegian code of practice for corporate governance which encourages directors to own shares in the company. The nomination committee thus proposes to continue offering the shareholder-elected members compensation in addition to ordinary board remuneration, which in its entirety (after tax) is used to purchase shares in the company.
The adjustment of ordinary board fees is proposed to be increased by approximately 5%, which in line with salary developments in general and in the company. The same applies to fees for positions in the remuneration committee, the audit committee and the nomination committee.
The nomination committee proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution for remuneration in 2024 (2023):
The board proposes the fee for the head of the nomination committee and the other two members.
The board proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution for remuneration in 2024 (2023):
