Item 14 – Approval of the remuneration report

The principles for remuneration and terms of employment for senior executives and group management were resolved at the 2023 AGM and apply until the 2026 AGM. These are available at the Company’s web site: https://www.wihlborgs.se/en/about-us/corporate-governance/remuneration-principles/.

The board proposes that the annual general meeting decide on approval of the board's report on remuneration in accordance with Chapter 8, section 53 of the Swedish Companies Act.
 

Item 15 – Resolution on principles for remuneration and employment terms for Group Executive Management

Background

According to the Swedish Companies Act and the Swedish Corporate Governance Code, the general meeting shall resolve on guidelines for remuneration and other terms of employment for senior executives. In Wihlborgs, the Chief Executive Officer is currently the only senior executive within the meaning of the Act. The Group Executive Management otherwise consists of the Chief Financial Officer, the Head of HR, the Head of Projects and Development, and the Regional Managers for Malmö, Lund and Helsingborg.

The Board’s proposal

How the guidelines promote Wihlborgs’ business strategy, long-term interests and sustainability

An overarching objective of Wihlborgs’ operations is to create strong growth in shareholder value over time, achieved through the implementation of the company’s business strategy. In brief, the business strategy means that Wihlborgs shall develop, own and manage commercial properties in-house, with a focus on well-functioning submarkets in the Öresund region (for further information see https://www.wihlborgs.se/sv/om-oss/organisation/affarside//). Wihlborgs shall have remuneration levels and employment terms required to recruit and retain senior executives with the competence and capacity needed to achieve established objectives, implement the business strategy and safeguard Wihlborgs’ long-term interests, including its sustainability work. The Board considers and evaluates remuneration as a whole consisting of the components fixed salary, variable remuneration, pension benefits and non-monetary benefits. Market-based and competitive remuneration shall be the overall principles for remuneration to senior executives in Wihlborgs, and these guidelines enable senior executives to be offered such remuneration.

Preparation

The Board’s Remuneration Committee prepares matters regarding guidelines for remuneration and employment terms for senior executives, and the full Board resolves on remuneration and employment terms for senior executives. The Board shall prepare proposals for new guidelines at least every fourth year and present the proposal for resolution at the Annual General Meeting. The guidelines shall apply until new guidelines have been adopted by the general meeting, but no later than until the Annual General Meeting 2029. In this capacity, the Board shall also monitor and evaluate programs for variable remuneration for senior executives, the application of the guidelines for remuneration to senior executives, and the prevailing remuneration structures and levels in the company. The participating Board members shall be independent in relation to the company and its executive management. When the Board addresses and resolves on remuneration-related matters, the CEO or other members of Group Executive Management shall not be present, insofar as they are affected by the matters.

Remuneration

The Board of Wihlborgs proposes that remuneration and other employment terms shall be determined with consideration given to competence and area of responsibility. Remuneration for senior executives shall consist of a fixed salary. Any remuneration in addition to the fixed salary shall be capped at half of the fixed salary and shall be paid in cash. Where applicable, remuneration in addition to the fixed salary shall be based on outcomes in relation to predetermined targets and shall align with the interests of the shareholders. The company currently has no remuneration commitments to either senior executives or other members of Group Executive Management beyond the fixed salary. Wihlborgs has a profit-sharing foundation that covers all employees. Allocations to the foundation are linked to the return on equity and are capped at one price base amount per employee per year.

Pension benefits

The retirement age for all members of Group Executive Management is 65. The cost of the CEO’s pension is paid through a premium corresponding to 35 percent of the pensionable salary per year during the term of employment. For other members of Group Executive Management, the ITP plan or equivalent applies.

Non-monetary benefits

Non-monetary benefits for senior executives may include, among other things, private health insurance, mobile phone and company car.

Notice of termination and severance pay

For the CEO, a mutual notice period of six months applies. For other members of Group Executive Management, the notice period is four to six months. Severance pay for the CEO amounts to 18 months’ salary, and for other members of Group Executive Management up to a maximum of 12 months’ salary. Severance pay shall be offset against other income.

Salary and employment conditions for other employees

When preparing the Board’s proposal for these remuneration guidelines, salary and employment conditions for Wihlborgs’ other employees have been taken into account. Information regarding employees’ total remuneration, the components of remuneration and the increase and rate of increase over time has formed part of the Board’s decision-making basis when evaluating the reasonableness of the guidelines and the limitations arising from them.

Deviation from the guidelines in special circumstances

The Board may decide to temporarily deviate from the guidelines in whole or in part if, in an individual case, there are special reasons for doing so and a deviation is necessary to safeguard the company’s long-term interests, including its sustainability, or to ensure the company’s financial viability.

Description of significant changes to the guidelines and how shareholders’ views have been taken into account

These guidelines have been prepared in accordance with the requirements applicable ahead of the 2026 Annual General Meeting. The Board has reviewed the guidelines and made minor editorial adjustments. Otherwise, the same guidelines apply as previously with regard to fixed and variable salary, other benefits, allocations to the company’s profit-sharing foundation, employment terms, etc.

Information regarding previously decided remuneration that has not yet fallen due for payment

At the time of the 2026 Annual General Meeting, the company has no outstanding remuneration commitments that have not fallen due for payment, other than ongoing commitments to senior executives in accordance with the remuneration principles adopted at the 2023 Annual General Meeting.

Item 16: Resolution concerning authorisation of the Board to acquire and assign own shares

The Board’s proposal means that the Board is authorised to acquire and assign its own shares before the next Annual General Meeting as follows:

A. Authorisation to decide on acquisition of own shares

1. Acquisition may occur of as many shares as are needed so that the company’s holdings total at most ten (10) percent of all the company’s registered shares.

2. Assignment can take place both on Nasdaq Stockholm and, disapplying the shareholders’ preferential rights, to third parties in connection with acquisitions of properties or of companies.
3. Assignment takes place at a price per share within the price range registered at any given time.

5. Remuneration for assigned shares can be paid in cash or, in conjunction with property or company acquisitions, through non-cash considerations, through set-offs, or otherwise subject to conditions.

Item 17 – Resolution concerning authorisation of the Board to decide on a new share issue equivalent to a maximum ten (10) percent of shares outstanding

The Board’s proposal means that the Board is authorised, before the next AGM, to take decisions on new share issues of equivalent to at most a total of ten percent (10) of the company’s share capital at the time of the authorisation. The Board has the right to decide to disapply shareholders’ preferential rights, as well as on conditions under Chapter 13, Section 5, paragraph 1, point 6 of the Swedish Companies Act (non-cash consideration, set-off, or other conditions).

However, in the event of such disapplication of shareholders’ preferential rights for the period until the next AGM, the number of newly issued shares together with the number of assigned shares disapplying shareholders’ preferential rights under the authorisation in Item 16 may never exceed ten (10) percent of the company’s total shares at the time of the authorisation.

Issues may only take place at market prices.
