CORRECTION: Proposals by Koskisen Corporation’s Shareholders’ Nomination Board to Annual General Meeting 2026
Koskisen Corporation corrects its stock exchange release published on 6 February 2026 Proposals by Koskisen Corporation’s Shareholders’ Nomination Board to Annual General Meeting 2026.
Corrected section:
The correction concerns the fifth paragraph, which incorrectly stated that the Board of the Directors recommends that shareholders take a position on the proposal as a whole at the Annual General Meeting as well as the following sentence, which incorrectly stated that in preparing its proposals, the Board of Directors, in addition to ensuring that individual candidates for membership of the Board of Directors possess the required competence, has determined that the proposed Board of Directors as a whole also has the best possible expertise for the company. Instead of Board of Directors, the recommendation is given and determination has been made by the Shareholders’ Nomination Board.
Corrected release in its entirety:
Proposals by Koskisen Corporation’s Shareholders’ Nomination Board to Annual General Meeting 2026
The Shareholders' Nomination Board of Koskisen Corporation presents the following proposals to the Annual General Meeting planned to be held on 23 April 2026. The proposals will be included in the notice to the Annual General Meeting to be published at a later date.
Proposal on the composition of the Board of Directors
The Shareholders’ Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the number of the Board members be six.
Shareholders’ Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that Pekka Kuusniemi, Carita Himberg, Karri Koskela, Hanna Masala, Kalle Reponen and Hanna Sievinen will be re-elected as members of the Board. In addition, the Shareholders’ Nomination Board proposes that Pekka Kuusniemi will still be elected as Chair of the Board of Directors.
All candidates have given their consent to the election. All candidates are independent of the company and company’s significant shareholders. Hanna Sievinen and Kalle Reponen, if re-elected, would be non-executive directors for 10 consecutive years or more. However, their independence is not compromised due to their service history and no other factors or circumstances have been identified that could impair their independence.
With regard to the selection procedure for the members of the Board of Directors, Shareholders’ Nomination Board recommends that shareholders take a position on the proposal as a whole at the Annual General Meeting. In preparing its proposals, Shareholders’ Nomination Board, in addition to ensuring that individual candidates for membership of the Board of Directors possess the required competence, has determined that the proposed Board of Directors as a whole also has the best possible expertise for the company.
