Change in the holding of Kesko Corporation's treasury shares

The Restricted Share Pool (RSP) plan, first communicated in a stock exchange release on 2 February 2017, consists of annually commencing share plans. Each RSP plan has a three-year commitment period, after which the potentially granted share awards of the individual plan will be paid to the participants. Share awards based on the plans are paid in Kesko B shares.

Kesko Corporation’s Board of Directors has decided to grant a total of 3,250 Kesko B shares in accordance with the rules of the RSP plan. The granting of the shares is based on the authorisation granted to the Board of Directors by the Annual General Meeting of 30 March 2023.

The gross number of shares transferred today was 6,500 from which the applicable transfer tax and withholding tax has been deducted and the remaining net amount (3,250 B shares) has been paid to the recipient in B shares in the Company.

After the transfer of the shares, Kesko holds 2,113,471 of its own B shares as treasury shares.
