The bonus issue will be effected by a transfer of SEK 80,595.250979 from unrestricted equity to share capital, as per the adopted balance sheet 2025/2026. No new shares will be issued in connection with the bonus issue. The quota value of a share thereby increases by approximately SEK 0.00037 to SEK 0.0087 per share.
