ROBIT PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 15 FEBRUARY 2022 AT 1.00 PM
ROBIT PLC’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS DECIDED ON A PERFORMANCE SHARE PLAN 2022–2024 FOR ITS KEY PERSONNEL
Robit Plc’s Board of Directors has on 15 February 2022 decided on a Performance Share Plan (“Plan”) for its key personnel. The purpose of the Plan is to align the objectives of the shareholders and the key personnel for increasing the value of the company in the long-term, to commit the key personnel and to steer them towards achieving the company’s strategic targets, as well as to offer them a competitive long-term incentive scheme.
The Plan comprises a one-year Performance Period and a two-year Performance Period. Performance Periods cover the financial years of 2022 and 2023–2024. The potential reward for the period 2022 is based on reaching a predefined Cash flow from operations target in financial statements 2022. The potential reward for the period 2023–2024 is based on a predefined average of EPS target in financial statements 2023 and 2024. The potential reward for both periods will be paid in May 2025.
The Plan covers approximately 30 key persons, management team members and high-potential employees. A participant must be employed by the company. The Plan directed to the management team members includes an ownership obligation meaning that the company’s management team member is obliged to hold 50 percent of the received reward shares until the value of the member’s total shareholding in the company corresponds to 50 percent of the member’s gross salary for the calendar year preceding the payment of the reward.
The Board of Directors decides on the maximum reward for each participant. The maximum total amount of potential share rewards to be paid based on the performance periods 2022 and 2023–2024 of these two Plans is 180,000 gross shares of Robit Plc, corresponding to 0.8 percent of the total number of the company’s shares. Payable reward consists of reward shares, remaining after the deduction of a cash proportion. The cash proportion is required for covering taxes. The company determines the ratio between the share proportion and cash proportion, e.g., on a country-specific, individual or personnel group basis. Sizing of the Plan is dimensioned so that the total dilution of all existing share plans stays always under 4 percent of the total number of the company’s shares.
