A One-off Matching Share Plan for The CEO of Bittium Corporation and Transfer of
Own Shares
Bittium Corporation, Stock Exchange Release, 15 May 2025, at 7.00 pm (CEST+1)
The Board of Directors of Bittium Corporation has today decided on the
establishment of a one-off matching share plan for the Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) of the company (below the “Plan”).
The aim of the Plan is through share ownership to align the interests of the CEO
with those of the company's shareholders and thereby to promote shareholder
value creation in the long term as well as the retention of the CEO with the
company.
The matching share plan is a one-off plan, in which the CEO is expected to make
an investment of approximately EUR 100,000 in shares of Bittium Corporation.
Bittium Corporation will match the share investment by way of delivering
matching shares without consideration with a net value of EUR 100,000 to the
CEO.
The share investment is carried out by way of a transfer of own shares against
consideration to the CEO (a directed share issue against consideration). The
subscription price payable for the shares is based on the volume-weighted
average price of the share of Bittium Corporation formed in public trading on
Nasdaq Helsinki after the publication date of Bittium Corporation's Business
Review January-March 2025 during the period 30 April - 13 May 2025. The
subscription price so formed for the shares is 6.69 euro per share and, based
thereon, the number of shares offered for subscription by the CEO 14,949
shares.
The shares are offered for subscription by the CEO immediately, however, within
seven days from the date of the above-mentioned decision of the Board of
Directors at the latest. The CEO has today subscribed all the abovementioned
shares which were offered for subscription.
The delivery of the matching shares to the CEO based on the Plan is carried out
by way of transferring own shares without consideration (a directed share issue
without consideration). The number of matching shares is determined based on the
same above-mentioned average price and is 14,949 shares. The matching shares are
delivered within fourteen days from the date the CEO made and paid the above
-mentioned share subscription against payment. The CEO having today made that
respective share investment, the matching shares have been delivered to him
today in accordance with the Plan. In addition to the matching shares, the
company pays the payroll tax and other taxes and tax-like charges payable in
connection with the Plan.
The matching shares delivered to the CEO will be subject to a transfer
restriction of two years.
There is an especially weighty financial reason for the company, also taking
into account the interests of all the company's shareholders, to deviate from
the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription right both in the directed share
issue against and in that without consideration. They form a matching share plan
for the CEO the aim of which is through share ownership to align the interests
of the CEO with those of the company's shareholders and thereby to promote
shareholder value creation in the long term as well as the retention of the CEO
with the company.
Bittium Corporation, after the abovementioned share transfers holds 186,228 own
shares. After the implementation of the Plan the shareholding of the CEO in
Bittium Corporation is 57,863 shares.
