Guidelines for remuneration to senior executives
The AGM resolved to adopt the guidelines for remuneration to senior executives in accordance with
the proposal of the Board of Directors.
Long-term share-based incentive program (LTIP 2026)
The AGM resolved in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors to establish a long-term share-based incentive program (LTIP 2026) for the Group Management and other key employees within the HEXPOL Group. The LTIP 2026 includes approximately 80 participants. Participants are awarded share rights free of charge after the AGM that may give a participant the right to, after a vesting period of at least three years calculated from the date of allocation, receive series B shares in HEXPOL ("Share") free of charge, provided that certain conditions are met. These conditions are linked to continued employment in the HEXPOL Group and to the achievement of the performance requirements regarding the company's earnings per share (EPS). The number of share rights ultimately allocated to a participant depends on the development of HEXPOL's reported earnings per share for the financial year 2026 ("EPS 2026") in relation to earnings per share for the financial year 2025 ("EPS 2025"). The performance levels for allocation have been determined by the Board of Directors and require that EPS 2026 exceeds EPS 2025.
The maximum number of Shares that may be allocated under the LTIP 2026 is limited to 900,000, which corresponds to approximately 0.27 per cent of the total number of shares in the company. The total cost for the LTIP 2026 is estimated at approximately MSEK 78.6. HEXPOL intends to enter into a share swap agreement with third parties on market terms, whereby the third party in its own name will be able to acquire and transfer Shares to the participants.
