Valuno Group AB (publ) hereby wishes to provide clarification regarding the interim management solution communicated in connection with the Board of Directors appointing the Chairman of the Board, Peter Liljeroos, as Acting Chief Executive Officer (interim CEO). The appointment has taken effect immediately and applies for a limited, temporary period, with the purpose of ensuring continuity in the Company's operational activities while the recruitment process for a permanent CEO is ongoing.
Temporary and compliant solutionThe Board's decision to have the Chairman of the Board assume the role of interim CEO is a temporary measure taken during a transitional phase in which the Company seeks to ensure continued stability and leadership.
In accordance with the Swedish Companies Act, accepted market practice, and established practice on Swedish growth markets, such an arrangement is permissible when it is clearly time-limited, transparent, and linked to an ongoing recruitment process for a permanent CEO.
The interim solution does not constitute a permanent combination of roles, and the Company remains fully compliant with the applicable regulatory framework.
Board composition and Extraordinary General MeetingThe Company has convened an Extraordinary General Meeting, at which the Nomination Committee proposes the election of new members of the Board of Directors.
When the new Board assumes office, the following will apply:
Peter Liljeroos will not remain Chairman of the Board during the period in which he serves as interim CEO.The Board will immediately following the meeting constitute itself in accordance with the Swedish Companies Act and principles of good corporate governance.This means that the allocation of roles will revert to a structure consistent with good governance practice upon the appointment of the new Board members — or when a permanent CEO has been appointed, whichever occurs first.
Dialogue with major shareholders, incoming Board members, and management of potential conflicts of interestThe Company is also conducting a structured dialogue with its largest shareholders to ensure that:
the work of the Board is carried out in accordance with good corporate governance,the temporary combination of roles does not create conflicts of interest, andthe arrangement does not conflict with the Swedish Corporate Governance Code or established market practice.This forms an important part of the governance during the transitional period and is carried out to further ensure transparency and maintain market confidence.
Stability and continued focus on operationsThe Company would like to reiterate that its strategic direction, as well as previously communicated objectives, remain unchanged. During the period until a permanent CEO has been appointed, the focus will be on:
ensuring operational stability and continuity,continuing the execution of the Company's key strategic initiatives, andmaintaining predictable and transparent communication with the market._________________
