Establishment of a new share-based long-term incentive scheme for the executives and key employees of Gofore Plc
The Board of Directors of Gofore Plc has decided on the establishment of a new share-based long-term incentive scheme for the company's Executive Management Team and selected key employees. The incentive scheme comprises a Performance Share Plan (PSP).
The objectives of the Performance Share Plan are to align the interests of Gofore's management and key employees with those of the company's shareholders and, thus, to promote shareholder value creation in the long term, to motivate management and key employees to achieving Gofore's strategic targets and the retention of key resources.
The Performance Share Plan consists of annually commencing individual plans. Each plan comprises a three-year performance period which is followed by the payment of the potential share rewards in Gofore shares. The commencement of each new plan is subject to a separate decision of Gofore's Board of Directors.
The first plan, PSP 2026-2028, commences effective as of the beginning of 2026 and the potential share rewards payable thereunder will be paid during H1 2029. The payment of the rewards is conditional on the achievement of the performance targets which the Board of Directors has set for the plan.
The performance measures based on which the potential share reward under PSP 2026-2028 will be paid are adjusted EBITA, revenue growth and the relative total shareholder return of Gofore's share (relative TSR).
Eligible for participation in PSP 2026-2028 are approximately 45 individuals, including the members of Gofore's Executive Management Team.
If the performance targets set for PSP 2026-2028 are fully achieved, the aggregate maximum number of shares to be paid based on this plan is approximately 106,200 shares. The maximum number refers to gross earning, from which the applicable payroll tax is withheld and the remaining net earning paid in shares.
Other terms
The value of the rewards payable under the plans is limited by a maximum cap linked to share price development. If the individual's employment with Gofore terminates before the payment of the reward, the individual is, as a main rule, not entitled to any reward based on the respective plan.
