The Annual General Meeting of Investor 2019 decided to authorize the company's Board to decide on the transfer of the company's own shares in order to, among other things, secure costs for Investor's long-term variable remuneration program for employees within Investor and for the issue of synthetic shares as part of the Board remuneration. 

As previously communicated, the company's Board has decided to utilize the authorization for these purposes. Due to the postponed Annual General Meeting the transfer period is extended to the Annual General Meeting on June 17, 2020.

The transfer of own shares may take place on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price within the price interval registered from time to time. 

Investor currently owns 1,766,234 of its own B-shares and shares that may be transferred under the authorization amounts to 1,500,000 B-shares.
