Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Ascelia Pharma AB ( (SE:ACE) ) has provided an announcement.

Ascelia Pharma AB’s annual general meeting on 4 May 2026 approved the 2025 accounts and decided to carry forward SEK 13.4 million without paying a dividend, while granting discharge from liability to the board and CEO. Shareholders re-elected the existing board, confirmed Peter Benson as chairman, set board and committee remuneration structures including synthetic share-based fees, and reappointed Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers AB with Mikael Nilsson as auditor in charge.

The meeting adopted new guidelines for senior executive pay and approved the 2025 remuneration report, but rejected a proposed authorization for the board to issue new shares, prompting the board to seek further input from major shareholders and plan a revised proposal. Investors also backed a new long-term performance-based share saving program for employees, authorizing related C-share issuances and buybacks that could dilute existing ordinary shares by about 3.67%, underscoring Ascelia’s focus on equity-based incentives while signaling shareholder caution on broader capital-raising mandates.
