Share buy-back
The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board to buy back a maximum five per cent of all shares in the company during the period before the next Annual General Meeting. The shares are to be purchased on the Stockholm Stock Exchange at a price per share that is within the registered price interval at any given time. The aim of the buy-back is to optimise the company’s capital structure and to create opportunities to use SWECO shares in connection with future acquisitions. SWECO AB’s current holding of own shares amounts to 111,400.

Transfer of SWECO shares
The Annual General Meeting also authorised the Board to resolve on the transfer of SWECO shares during the period before the next Annual General Meeting. Such transfers, without preferential rights for the shareholders, may take place in connection with acquisitions in an amount corresponding to the appraised market value. The goal is to finance future acquisitions in a cost-effective manner.
