STOCKHOLM, Feb. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ericsson's
(NASDAQ:ERIC) annual general meeting on March 29, 2023 authorized the company's board of
directors to resolve on the transfer of the company's own shares.
Under the authorization the company may, in conjunction with the
delivery of vested shares under the long-term variable compensation
programs 2019 and 2020 ("LTV 2019" and "LTV 2020"),
prior to the annual general meeting in 2024, decide to retain and
sell no more than 60% of the vested shares of series B in the
company in order to cover for the costs for withholding and paying
tax and social security liabilities on behalf of the participants
in relation to the performance share awards for remittance to
revenue authorities. Ericsson has today decided to utilize the
authorization to transfer shares for these purposes.
The transfer of own shares may take place on Nasdaq Stockholm
during the period from and including February 16, 2024 up to the annual general
meeting 2024 at a price within the price interval registered from
time to time.
Ericsson currently holds 12,932,223 shares of series B in the
company and the maximum number of shares that may be transferred on
Nasdaq Stockholm pursuant to the decision to utilize the
authorization amounts to 774,889 shares of series B in the
company.
