Information about Skanska's Annual General Meeting on March 26, 2020 with regards to the coronavirus

Skanska will hold its Annual General Meeting in Stockholm as planned. With
regards to the uncertainty about the spread of infection due to the coronavirus,
a decision has been taken to implement a number of precautionary measures.

In conjunction with this year's Annual General Meeting, Skanska will make
certain adjustments to arrangements to reduce the risk of spreading the
infection. Registration will begin at 9:30 am CET and not at 9:00 am CET as
stated in the notice to attend the meeting. We have decided to hold the Annual
General Meeting in the simplest possible form. No food will be served before the
meeting. Furthermore, speeches by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Hans
Biörck, and President and CEO, Anders Danielsson, will be confined to two
minutes each. Longer versions of these speeches will be published and made
available on Skanska's website, www.group.skanska.com, after the meeting.
Questions from shareholders at the meeting will therefore be focused on matters
on the agenda of the meeting. Shareholders with more general questions about the
company are welcome to provide these in writing to [e-mail].

Other than the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the President and CEO, a
limited number of board members and members of the Group Leadership Team will
attend the Annual General Meeting.

If you have notified Skanska of your intention to attend Skanska's Annual
General Meeting and have been in a risk area in the past 14 days before the date
of the meeting, or if you have been in close contact with a person infected with
the new coronavirus, Skanska encourage that you refrain from attending. This is
to avoid the further spread of the infection. Our guidelines are based on the
Public Health Agency of Sweden's list of identified risk areas: the whole of
mainland China including Hong Kong (but not Macau), South Korea, Iran, all of
Italy and Tyrol in Austria.

We wish to remind you of the option not to attend Skanska's Annual General
Meeting in person but instead to participate through a proxy.

Skanska has received information that Euroclear Sweden is offering to provide
proxy agents to represent shareholders who do not wish to attend the meeting in
person. Euroclear Sweden is not acting on Skanska's behalf and is not providing
services to Skanska in this regard.

The proxy form for agents to represent shareholders and to exercise their voting
rights is available for download
here. (https://group.skanska.com/49227b/siteassets/corporate-governance/annual
-general-meeting/2020/power-of-attorney-form.pdf)

We hope shareholders understand that Skanska is limiting the Annual General
Meeting as outlined above given the current special circumstances as a result of
the coronavirus.

Skanska is closely monitoring developments on the coronavirus and will, when
necessary, update the above precautionary measures prior to the Annual General
Meeting. We encourage that all those who intend to participate at the meeting
stay updated via www.group.skanska.com, on potential further measures.
