EFUEL signs an agreement with Wallbox

EFUEL is a DistIT-owned company specializing in EV charging solutions. EFUEL’s partnership with Wallbox ultimately means that the Wallbox product range will be added to EFUEL’s assortment in both Sweden and Finland.

STOCKHOLM, October 27, 2022 – Wallbox, a leading supplier of charging solutions for electric vehicles, signs a cooperation agreement with EFUEL, one of Sweden's leading distributors of electric car chargers.

EFUEL has an extensive network of installers who sell electric car chargers and installations all over Sweden and Finland. EFUEL is also considered to be one of the leading specialists in electric car charging in Sweden with a strong focus on facilitating the transition to fossil-free car ownership. The new collaboration with EFUEL ensures that Wallbox products are available to both Swedish and Finnish consumers and companies that need to charge their electric cars in a smart and convenient way.

The introduction of Wallbox is a significant step in EFUEL successful strategy to continually develop the range with the right products. By listening to the market and its extensive network of installers, EFUEL has found that Wallbox is the right partner to cover the increasing need for charging stations.

An electrifying new addition to the range is the bidirectional charger Wallbox Quasar, which was engineered to transform electric vehicles into powerful energy sources. The bidirectional charging technology lets you charge and discharge your EV, allowing you to power your home or the grid with your car battery.

These functions make it possible to use the car's battery both to buy electricity when it is cheapest and to charge with solar energy. In this way, our customers get a unique opportunity to ensure the future need for energy in the home.

By broadening the range with Wallbox's popular products, EFUEL will further strengthen its market competitiveness within the EV charging market. This collaboration also means that EFUEL will offer competitive chargers for public charging; the Wallbox DC charger Supernova of 130 KW/H and Hypernova of 350 KW/H.

“It is with great pleasure that we (EFUEL) are finally able to add Wallbox to our product assortment! We’ve had Wallbox in our scope for quite some time and have increasingly recognized what a perfect complement the Wallbox product range would be to our existing assortment. Via Wallbox we are now enabling both solar- and V2G charging; an essentiality in the transition to renewable energy dependency at home. What is more, I am also deeply impressed with Wallbox as a company and the ambition that we both share in making it easy for the consumer to be sustainable. With Wallbox in our product assortment we will continue to pursue our vision of being at the forefront of creating a future in which the usage, and storage, of renewable energy remain the catalyst for change”, says Rasmus Bender, founder and CEO of EFUEL

Wallbox invests globally in several areas within electric car charging such as software for smart energy management and innovations in bidirectional charging for the home. The company's products aim to simplify the daily life of electric car drivers, i.a. by being able to charge the electric car with its own solar cells or when electricity is cheapest. Wallbox develops products both for private individuals and semi-public environments, such as housing associations and communities, companies, and public parking lots.

Merger between Aurora Group and Deltaco – forming Aurdel

Two of the Nordics' largest distributors, Deltaco and Aurora Group, both owned by DistIT AB, have until now operated in parallel with a focus on various main Nordic markets. These two companies are now merging to form the new company Aurdel.

The purpose of the merger of the two DistIT-owned companies is to create a new, stronger company with an expanded range as well as smarter service offerings and logistics solutions. In total, Aurdel offers over 30,000 products, including own brands such as DELTACO and L33T Gaming. Among Aurdel's B2C and B2B customers are several major retailers such as Elgiganten, Dustin, Komplett and Media Markt. Sales take place both in physical stores and in digital channels, such as e-tailers and other digital marketplaces.

”We foresee that we have everything to gain by merging these two large Nordic players. In addition to scalability, it means a common supply and warehouse, smart logistics solutions and an enormous competence that is now being gathered. In this way, we can reach more customers and create even better, faster and smoother customer experiences as well as technical solutions around the Nordics and also in the Baltics”, says Martin Gutberg, CEO at Aurdel.

With Aurdel, DistIT increases its market share in the Nordic market significantly. In 2021, Deltaco and Aurora had a combined turnover of approximately SEK 1.9 billion.

”Aurdel will be a good platform for growing organically and we are at the same time well equipped to meet the market fluctuations. We have the capacity and conditions to help various customers with several different types of problems in a simple way. With Aurdel, we will be an incredibly strong player.”

Right from the start, Aurdel will offer existing and new customers greater value in the form of improved customer experience, faster service, and smarter logistics solutions. Through a combined product range, a better business system and a common warehouse, the ambition is to eventually grow to become the market-leading business partner in Europe, with a particular focus on the Nordics and the Baltics.

Robert Rosenzweig, CEO DistIT AB: “We are pleased to welcome Tomas Fällman as the new CFO of DistIT. He will be a valuable addition to the continued work of developing the companies' management system, and the ongoing implementation of the group's strategic work.”

DistIT AB (publ): cost synergies within Aurora Deltaco in connection with the merger of the companies

In accordance with the strategy to build a common platform for Aurora Deltaco, the companies are now entering the next phase of realising efficiency improvements, which is expected to lead to annual cost savings of 22 MSEK in total and related one-off costs of 9 MSEK in total split between the second and third quarters of 2022.

In 2019, a relatively extensive restructuring and cost rationalisation was carried out that related to management functions, and at that time DistIT communicated that further streamlining was to be expected in the future. The measures being implemented in this phase of the merger are:

Reorganisation within the category and sales departments, which is estimated to lead to 16 MSEK in annual cost savings with start in the second quarter 2022.
Merger of the two companies' third-party warehouses, which is estimated to lead to 6 MSEK in annual cost savings with start in the third quarter 2022.
One-off costs for these projects are estimated to 9 MSEK in total split between the second and third quarters of 2022.

Furthermore, the measures are expected to lead to improved commercial proficiency as well as more efficient logistics and inventory management. This will strengthen Aurora Deltaco's business, competitiveness and cost efficiency during continued growth.

The IT integration of Aurora Deltaco will continue and is expected to be completed in the latter part of 2022, with further efficiency gains as a result.

The above measures are also part of the creation of DistIT Services, which, in addition to acting as a base platform for Aurora Deltaco, is also being developed as a synergy platform for other DistIT companies within product development, procurement, logistics and marketing.

The CFO of DistIT AB (publ), Philip Gunnarsson, has chosen to terminate his employment in order to take on a new assignment outside the company.

Robert Rosenzweig, CEO of DistIT: "I want to thank Philip for delivering a significant contribution to the company, in an impressively wise and self-sacrificing manner. I would also like to take this opportunity to wish Philip good luck with his next exciting challenge."

Philip Gunnarsson, CFO of DistIT: “I wish to thank all the fantastic colleagues and the Board of Directors for their cooperation and trust these last years. Today, DistIT and its subsidiaries are well equipped for the future, and I am proud to have been a part of this journey. I am very positive about the group's future opportunities in this turbulent time, and for that reason intend to keep my shares in the company”.

The process of finding a replacement has begun, and Philip will remain as the company's CFO for a period of time to ensure the transition and to continue working on ongoing transformation work.

If any of the four largest shareholders or groups of owners waive their right to appoint a member to the Nomination Committee, the next shareholder or group of owners shall be given the opportunity to appoint a member to the Nomination Committee, until the tenth largest owner/owner configuration and all owners/owner configurations who represent more than 5% of the Company's shares have been consulted. If fewer than four members could be recruited via this procedure, the Nomination Committee may consist of at least two people. In addition, the Chair of the Board shall be appointed as a member of the Nomination Committee.

If a member leaves the Nomination Committee prematurely, a new member shall, if possible, be appointed by the same shareholder. If the said shareholders waive their right to appoint a member to the Nomination Committee, the next largest shareholder, who has not already appointed a member to the Nomination Committee, shall be given the opportunity to appoint a member to the Nomination Committee. Changes in the Nomination Committee shall be announced immediately.

The CEO or another person from the company management shall not be a member of the Nomination Committee. The Chair of the Board convenes the first meeting of the Nomination Committee.

In interviews with the Board’s members, the Chair of the Company shall not be included in order to ensure transparency.

Principles for the Nomination Committee's charge and how the Nomination Committee shall be appointed apply to each Nomination Committee until the Annual General Meeting resolves an amendment thereof.

Item 17. Resolution on guidelines for remuneration to senior executives

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting adopt the following guidelines for determining salaries and other remuneration to board members (refers to remuneration in addition to board fees, e.g., consulting fees), the CEO, Deputy CEO (if applicable), and the CEO of each of the subsidiaries and other persons in the Company's management. The guidelines shall be applied to remuneration that is agreed, and changes that are made to already agreed remunerations, after the guidelines have been adopted by the 2022 Annual General Meeting. The guidelines do not cover remunerations decided by the Annual General Meeting.

The Board shall, at least every four years, establish a proposal for new guidelines for remuneration to senior executives and submit the proposal for resolution at the Annual General Meeting.

How the guidelines advance the Company's business strategy, long-term interests and sustainability

The Company's business strategy is briefly as follows.

DistIT's business idea is to acquire, own and develop niche distributors of IT, mobility, consumer electronics, networking, data communication and AV products in the Nordic and Baltic countries. Companies within the DistIT Group deliver both B2B and B2C products to the IT and AV market in the Nordic and Baltic countries. The companies shall also develop and distribute EMV. DistIT has a value-creating strategy for its own branded labels that increases the relevance of customers and creates prerequisites for growth and profitability.

The DistIT Group's growth strategy consists of organic growth, acquisitions, and synergy opportunities. Organic growth within each company shall be achieved through continuous development of business models, a flexible organization and a careful analysis of the market's driving forces. Acquisitions of new companies shall strengthen the DistIT Group's offers and position, expand its geographical presence, or supplement the Group's customer base. Acquired companies must have leadership characterized by expertise and entrepreneurship, good earning capacity, and a proven business model. Synergy opportunities between the subsidiaries, both cost and market synergies in the DistIT Group, shall be identified and realized when the profit is greater than the coordination costs.

For further information on the Company's business strategy, see www.distit.se.

Successful implementation of the Company's business strategy and safeguarding of the Company's long-term interests, including its sustainability, require the Company to recruit and retain qualified employees. In order to do so, the Company must offer competitive and remuneration on market terms. These guidelines allow senior executives to be offered competitive overall remuneration.

The Company already has three long-term share-based incentive programs. These programs include the CEO and other senior executives and key personnel within the Group. The programs have been decided by the Annual General Meeting and are therefore not covered by these guidelines. For the same reason, the long-term share-based incentive program that the Board of Directors has proposed for the 2022 Annual General Meeting is also not covered. The program includes the Company's CEO and some of the Group's senior executives. For more information about the program, including the criteria on which the outcome depends, see the Board of Directors’ proposal to the Annual General Meeting for a resolution on the issue of warrants intended for incentive programs for senior executives.

Variable cash remuneration covered by these guidelines shall aim to promote the Company's business strategy and long-term interests, including its sustainability.

The forms of remuneration, etc.

The remuneration shall be on market terms and may consist of the following components: fixed cash salary, variable cash remuneration, pension benefits, life insurance, health insurance and other non-monetary benefits such as a company car. In addition – and independently of these guidelines – the Annual General Meeting may decide on, for example, share and share price related remuneration and incentive programs based on subscription warrants.

Fulfillment of criteria for payment of variable cash remuneration shall be measurable over a period of one year. The variable cash remuneration can amount to a maximum of 50 percent of the fixed annual cash salary. Furthermore, additional variable cash remuneration can be paid in exceptional circumstances as defined below.

For the CEO, pension benefits, including health insurance, shall be defined-contributions. Variable cash remuneration shall not be pensionable. The pension premiums for defined-contribution pensions can amount to a maximum of 35 percent of the fixed annual cash salary.

For other senior executives, pension benefits, including health insurance, shall be defined-contributions unless the executive is covered by a defined-benefit pension in accordance with mandatory collective agreement provisions. Variable cash remuneration shall be pensionable to the extent that this follows mandatory collective agreement provisions that are applicable to the executive. The pension premiums for defined-contribution pensions shall amount to a maximum of 35 percent of the fixed cash salary.

Other benefits may include, among other things, life insurance, health insurance and company cars. Such benefits may amount to a maximum of 19 percent of the fixed annual cash salary.

In terms of employment relationships that are subject to rules other than Swedish, in as far as this concerns pension benefits and other benefits, appropriate adjustments may be made to comply with such mandatory rules or established local practice, whereby the overall purpose of these guidelines shall as far as possible be met.

Termination of employment

The notice period shall be so long that the Company is given a reasonable time to recruit and train replacements, allowing restrictions that may follow from law. A notice period on the part of the executive of normally six months shall be deemed to meet this requirement. In the event of such termination, the executive shall not be entitled to severance pay. In the event of termination by the Company, the notice period may not exceed twelve months. Fixed cash salary during the notice period may not exceed an amount corresponding to the fixed cash salary for one year. Severance pay is not issued.

In addition, remuneration may be paid for any commitment to restrict competition. Such remuneration shall compensate for any loss of income and shall only be paid to the extent that the previous executive is not entitled to severance pay. The remuneration shall amount to a maximum of 60 percent of the fixed cash salary at the time of termination, unless otherwise provided by mandatory collective agreement provisions, and shall be paid during the period of the commitment to restrict competition, which shall be a maximum of 24 months after termination of employment.

Criteria for the distribution of variable cash remuneration, etc.

Variable cash remuneration shall be linked to predetermined and measurable financial or non-financial criteria. They may also consist of individually adapted quantitative or qualitative goals. The criteria shall be formulated so that they promote the Company's business strategy and long-term interests, including its sustainability by, for example, maintaining a clear connection to the business strategy or promoting the executive's long-term development.

Additional variable cash remuneration may be paid in extraordinary circumstances, provided that such extraordinary arrangements are made only to promote the senior executives' participation in share-based incentive programs or otherwise promote co-ownership in the Company. Such remuneration shall not exceed an amount equivalent to 50 percent of the fixed annual cash salary and shall not be paid more than once a year and per individual. On specific occasions related to encouraging co-ownership in the Company, such as share-based incentive programs that cover longer periods than one year, the remuneration for an individual year may correspond to a maximum of 50 percent of the fixed annual cash salary, when implementing the program, multiplied by the number of years the incentive program runs, although with a maximum of 150 percent. Decisions on such remuneration shall be made by the Board of Directors.

The Board shall have the right, in accordance with law or agreement and with the restrictions that may follow therefrom, to fully or partially reclaim variable cash remuneration that has been paid on incorrect grounds.

When the measurable period for fulfillment of the criteria for payment of variable cash remuneration has ended, the extent to which the criteria have been met shall be assessed/determined. The Board of Directors is responsible for the assessment of variable cash remuneration to the CEO. With regard to variable cash remuneration to other executives, the CEO is responsible for the assessment. With regard to financial targets, the assessment shall be based on the most recently published financial information by the Company.

Salary and employment conditions for employees

In the preparation of the Board of Directors' proposal for these remuneration guidelines, salary and employment conditions for employees of the Company have been taken into account by including information on the employees’ total income, the components of the remuneration and increase and growth rate over time, in the Board of Directors’ basis of decision when assessing whether the guidelines and the limitations set out herein are reasonable.

The fixed salary shall be market-based and determined individually, and based on each individual's role, performance, results and responsibilities. As a general rule, a fixed salary shall be renewed once a year.

The decision-making process for establishing, reviewing and implementing the guidelines

The Board of Directors has decided not to appoint a special remuneration committee. The Board has found that it is more suitable that the entire Board performs this task. However, a board member who is part of the company management shall not participate in the work. The Board of Directors shall establish a proposal for new guidelines, at least every four years, and submit the proposal for resolution at the Annual General Meeting. The guidelines shall apply until new guidelines have been adopted by the Annual General Meeting. The Board shall also monitor and evaluate programs for variable remuneration for company management, the application of the guidelines for remuneration to senior executives as well as the current remuneration structures and compensation levels in the Company. The Company's auditor must submit a written and signed statement to the Board no later than three weeks before each Annual General Meeting on whether the guidelines have been followed. If the auditor is of the opinion that the guidelines have not been followed, an explanation is to be included in the statement. The CEO and other persons in the company management do not attend the Board's consideration of and decisions on remuneration-related issues, insofar as they are affected by the issues.

The revision of the guidelines proposed for the 2022 Annual General Meeting essentially means that it is made clear that additional variable cash remuneration can be paid in extraordinary circumstances in accordance with what is stated in the guidelines. In other respects, the guidelines mainly comply with the guidelines adopted by the 2020 Annual General Meeting. Shareholders have not submitted any comments on previous guidelines adopted at the 2020 Annual General Meeting.

Consultancy fees to board members

In cases where board members perform work in addition to the usual board work, the Board of Directors shall, under certain circumstances, be able to determine additional remuneration in the form of consulting fees.

Deviations from guidelines

The Board of Directors may decide to deviate from the guidelines by up to 10% of the stated guidelines in relation to variable remuneration and benefits if, in an individual case, there are special reasons for this, and a deviation is necessary to meet the Company's long-term interests, including its sustainability, or to ensure the Company's economic viability.

If such deviations take place, the Board of Directors shall report the reasons for the deviation at the next Annual General Meeting.

Item 18. Resolution for incentive programs and the issue of subscription warrants 2022/2025:1-6

The Board of Directors of DistIT AB (publ) (the "Company") proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to introduce an incentive program and issue, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, of up to a total of 450 000 subscription warrants, divided into six different warrant series, with the accompanying right to subscribe for a maximum of 450,000 new shares.

Reasons for the proposal and the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights

The right to subscribe for the new subscription warrants shall only appertain to the Company's CEO and CFO as well as certain other key persons within the Group. The Board of Directors believes that the long-term ownership commitment of these people can be expected to stimulate an increased interest in the business and earnings development, increase motivation and solidarity with the Company. The Board therefore deems that the proposal is beneficial for the Company and its shareholders.

Issue of subscription warrants

Warrants will be issued in six different series:

Series	Number of subscription warrants
2022/2025:1	75 000
2022/2025:2	75 000
2022/2025:3	75 000
2022/2025:4	75 000
2022/2025:5	75 000
2022/2025:6	75 000

For each warrant series, there are different conditions for calculating the subscription price at which shares can be subscribed, see below.

The right to subscribe for the warrants 2022/2025: 1-6 shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, accrue to the Company's CEO Robert Rosenzweig and certain other key persons in the Company and subsidiaries in accordance with the maximum distribution per person below. Oversubscription is not possible.

Series	CEO (maximum)	Other key persons in the Company and subsidiaries (maximum per person)
2022/2025:1	33 335	25 000
2022/2025:2	33 333	25 000
2022/2025:3	33 333	25 000
2022/2025:4	33 333	25 000
2022/2025:5	33 333	25 000
2022/2025:6	33 333	25 000

The persons who have the right to subscribe for the subscription warrants shall notify how many warrants they wish to subscribe for. The Board of Directors decides on individual allocation to the category Other key persons in the Company and subsidiaries, taking into consideration such persons' positions within the Group and total remuneration. The allocation per person may not exceed the maximum distribution stated above, but may be lower.

Subscription of the warrants shall take place on the subscription list no later than June 7, 2022. The Board of Directors has the right to extend the subscription period. In order to be granted an allocation, the subscribers will need to enter into an agreement with the Company whereby the Company is given the right to repurchase subscription warrants if the subscriber’s employment or assignment in the group ends or if the subscriber would transfer warrants to third parties.

The subscription price for the warrants shall correspond to the market value of the warrants. The market value of each warrant series shall be calculated by an independent expert using the Black & Scholes warrant pricing model and shall be based on the volume-weighted average price of the Company's share on the Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market during the period from April 28, 2022 to June 3, 2022 ("Average Price"). The premium shall be added to the free premium fund. The subscription price must be paid within three business days after the subscription. The Board has the right to extend the payment period.

Each subscription warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) share in the Company. The price at which new shares are issued shall be determined as follows:

Series	Subscription price per share
2022/2025:1	If the volume-weighted average price for the Company's share during the period from April 28, 2025 to June 3, 2025 exceeds 140 percent of the Average Price (barrier level), the subscription price per share shall correspond to the Average Price, rounded to the second decimal place. Otherwise, the subscription price shall be 240 percent of the Average Price.
2022/2025:2	If the volume-weighted average price for the Company's share during the period from April 28, 2025 to June 3, 2025 exceeds 160 percent of the Average Price (barrier level), the subscription price per share shall correspond to the Average Price, rounded to the second decimal place. Otherwise, the subscription price shall be 240 percent of the Average Price.
2022/2025:3	If the volume-weighted average price for the Company's share during the period from April 28, 2025 to June 3, 2025 exceeds 180 percent of the Average Price (barrier level), the subscription price per share shall correspond to the Average Price, rounded to the second decimal place. Otherwise, the subscription price shall be 240 percent of the Average Price.
2022/2025:4	If the volume-weighted average price for the Company's share during the period from April 28, 2025 to June 3, 2025 exceeds 200 percent of the Average Price (barrier level), the subscription price per share shall correspond to the Average Price, rounded to the second decimal place. Otherwise, the subscription price shall be 240 percent of the Average Price.
2022/2025:5	If the volume-weighted average price for the Company's share during the period from April 28, 2025 to June 3, 2025 exceeds 220 percent of the Average Price (barrier level), the subscription price per share shall correspond to the Average Price, rounded to the second decimal place. Otherwise, the subscription price shall be 240 percent of the Average Price.
2022/2025:6	If the volume-weighted average price for the Company's share during the period from April 28, 2025 to June 3, 2025 exceeds 240 percent of the Average Price (barrier level), the subscription price per share shall correspond to the Average Price, rounded to the second decimal place. Otherwise, the subscription price shall be 240 percent of the Average Price.

Issuance of new shares with support of the subscription warrants can take place during the period from June 8, 2025 to June 30, 2025. In the event that the subscription period falls under a so-called closed period, when the subscriber is prevented from subscribing to shares in accordance with rules or routines applicable at any given time to prevent market abuse, the period is postponed by ten trading days after the end of the closed period. The new shares that may be issued at subscription are not subject to any reservations. A share that have been issued after subscription entail the right to a dividend for the first time on the record date for dividends that falls immediately after the share has been entered in the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB.

Upon full exercise of the subscription warrants, the share capital will increase by a maximum of SEK 900 000 by issuing a maximum of 450 000 shares, each with a quota value of SEK 2.00, corresponding to a dilution effect of approximately 3.1 percent of the total number of shares and votes in the Company. The number of shares that each subscription warrant entitles the right to subscribe for, and the subscription price and barrier level may be adjusted in accordance with the full terms and conditions of the subscription warrants.

A resolution under this item will not be valid unless it has been supported by shareholders representing at least nine tenths of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the Annual General Meeting.

Item 19. Resolution on the authorization for the Board to issue shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorize the Board to, on one or several occasions, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, decide on a new issue of shares corresponding to a dilution of a maximum of 10 percent of the Company's share capital and total number of votes at the time the authorization is used for the first time. Furthermore, such issues may take place against a cash payment, through non-cash and offset, or otherwise combined with conditions. The authorization shall primarily be used for the implementation of acquisitions or financing of the Company's operations.

Resolutions pursuant to this item are valid only if they have been supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

Item 20. Resolution on the authorization to register resolutions determined by the Annual General Meeting

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves that the Board of Directors, or the board appointed in its place, be authorized to make the minor adjustments in the resolutions that may prove to be necessary in connection with the registration of the matters dealt with and decisions taken with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

The Board of Directors

DistIT terminates the incentive programme 2019/2022, whereby the CEO subscribes for shares totalling SEK 5 288 760 with the support of subscription warrants, and unexercised subscription warrants are repurchased by DistIT.

The incentive programme, based on subscription warrants of series 2019/2022:1-6 which DistIT AB ("DistIT" or "the Company") introduced in 2019 with a term until March 2022, has now been terminated. The programme covered CEO Robert Rosenzweig, who subscribed for 132 219 new shares at a subscription price of SEK 40 per share, corresponding to a total of SEK 5 288 760.

In conjunction with the share subscription, and in order to enable Robert Rosenzweig's subscription of new shares, DistIT has repurchased a total of 137 780 of the unexercised subscription warrants in the programme from Robert Rosenzweig, for a total purchase price of SEK 5 288 784. Robert Rosenzweig has used the purchase price for the repurchased subscription warrants to pay for the newly subscribed shares via a settlement.

Stefan Charette, Chair of the Board: "We are pleased that Robert Rosenzweig continues to increase his share holding in DistIT."

Once the subscribed shares have been registered, there will be a total of 14 040 466 outstanding shares in the Company, and the share capital will amount to a total of SEK 28 080 932.

DistIT stops all sales to Russia and Belarus and provides support to Ukraine

DistIT and its subsidiaries have decided to stop all sales to Russia and Belarus due to the ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

The situation is exceptionally worrying. Our thoughts are with the people of Ukraine who are suffering badly from the Russian aggression and invasion. We fully support the EU and the Nordic countries' sanctions and we also try to contribute in the way we can in our activities to help the Ukrainian people and the state of Ukraine, says Robert Rosenzweig, CEO of DistIT.

The DistIT Group has taken the following measures:

– The parent company DistIT provides financial support of SEK 100,000 to the Red Cross in Ukraine.

– The subsidiary Aurora Deltaco has stopped selling products to Russia and Belarus. DeltacoBaltic has donated powerbanks and other products requested by the Red Cross.

Goods can not stop the humanitarian crisis, but we have donated powerbanks to ease the situation for the Ukrainian people. We have also complied with the Red Cross' request for assistance at the Lithuanian-Belarusian border and have already sent supplies, for example microwave ovens and refrigerators, via our Lithuanian company. AuroraDeltaco has a wide range of products and we are reviewing how we can continue to support the population in Ukraine and the refugees in the immediate area. Next we for example are preparing a shipment of 27,000 batteries to Ukraine, says Martin Gutberg, CEO of AuroraDeltaco.

– The subsidiary Sominis Technology, which is based in Lithuania, provides support of 10,000 Euros to Ukraine.

We are sending support to Ukraine and its people in their defensive fight against Russian aggression and invasion. We Lithuanians encountered the price of freedom and therefore encourage all our friends to support the fight for freedom in Ukraine and send their donations to Ukraine charity organizations, says Mindaugas Apanavicius, CEO Sominis Technology.

The total sales to Russia and Belarus represents a very small part of the Group's total revenue, hence the impact on revenue and earnings is estimated to be small.
