The latest update is out from Hoist Finance AB ( (SE:HOFI) ).

Hoist Finance AB’s annual general meeting in Stockholm approved the 2025 accounts and confirmed a dividend of SEK 6 per share, to be paid in mid-May, while carrying forward remaining earnings. Shareholders re-elected five board members, appointed Viveka Strangert as a new director, named Bengt Edholm as chairman, and confirmed EY with Daniel Eriksson as lead auditor, alongside inflation-adjusted board and committee fees.

The meeting adopted a four-year long-term share investment program for 18 senior executives and key employees, authorising a directed issue of up to about 1.2% of the company’s share capital, with Hoist financing 85% of the investment. A separate proposal to introduce a similar share ownership scheme for selected board members failed to secure sufficient support, signalling shareholder caution over expanding director-linked equity incentives while backing management-focused alignment measures.

The most recent analyst rating on (SE:HOFI) stock is a Buy with a SEK165.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hoist Finance AB stock, see the SE:HOFI Stock Forecast page.
