Remuneration
Remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors
The Annual General Meeting decides annually on the remuneration payable to members of Oriola’s Board of Directors. The Shareholders’ Nomination Board prepares a proposal concerning the composition and the remuneration of the Board of Directors for the company’s Annual General Meeting.
As stated in Oriola’s Remuneration Policy, the Board of Directors’ remuneration consists of annual fees for Board membership and separate Board and Committee attendance fees. The Board of Directors’ compensation can be paid out in shares or cash or combination of those. The Board of Directors are not employees of Oriola and do not participate in any Oriola incentive schemes or pension arrangements.
Board remuneration in 2024 is presented in the Remuneration Report.
CEO remuneration
The Board of Directors reviews and decides annually on the remuneration and benefits of the President & CEO based on the proposal of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee.
According to Oriola’s Remuneration Policy, the main components of the President & CEO’s total remuneration are base salary and short- and long-term incentives. If targets are met, over half of the President & CEO’s total remuneration is based on variable remuneration, with more emphasis on the long-term incentive.
CEO remuneration in 2024 is presented in the Remuneration Report.
Short-term incentive plan
The Short-term incentive plan (STI) is based on the achievement of the company’s financial targets and personal targets. The Board of Directors decides annually on the earnings criteria and the determination of the STI based on the proposal of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee.
Share-based incentive programmes
Oriola has a share-based long-term incentive plan for the company’s key employees, including the President & CEO and the Oriola Management Team.
The incentive plan comprises a Performance Share Plan (the “PSP”) and a share-based bridge plan to cover the transition phase to the new LTI structure (the “Bridge Plan”). In addition, the long-term incentive scheme comprises a Restricted Share Plan (also “RSP”) as a complementary long-term share-based retention plan for individually selected key employees in specific situations.
