Shareholders' meeting

The shareholders’ meeting is the forum in which the shareholders’ influence is exercised. It is the company’s highest decision-making body.

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) assembles once a year in Jönköping, usually in the beginning of May, in order to decide on matters such as the adoption of the annual report and consolidated financial statements and to decide on the allocation of profits from the previous year. The meeting also elects the Board of Directors and auditor.

Corporate governance

The Swedish Companies Act stipulates that the company must have three decision-making bodies: the shareholders’ meeting, the Board of Directors and the CEO. There must also be a controlling body, an auditor, who is appointed by the shareholders’ meeting. The Act stipulates which tasks the respective bodies have and which responsibilities fall upon the people making up the bodies. The Code complements the Act by setting higher requirements in certain areas, but also by making it possible for companies to deviate from these in specific circumstances if this will lead to better corporate governance.
