The Board was granted authorisations to issue shares and other instruments, including those required to fulfil LTIP 2025 and other incentive programs.
Events after the reporting period:
- The Green Mango dispute has now been finalized: Against Anoto Korea’s provision of USD 150,000 (1,447 KSEK) plus a further provision of USD 50,000 (482 KSEK) of legal costs. The court ordered Anoto Korea to pay the plaintiff (Green Mango Corp.) 924 KSEK (₩133,905,000), plus interest calculated at 6% per annum from 3 March 2022 to 11 November 2022, and then 12% per annum thereafter until the date of full payment. Litigation costs are apportioned between the parties, with the plaintiff bearing 3/5 and the defendant the remainder. Final legal costs have not yet been received.
- After the end of the reporting period, Anoto Group AB entered into a promissory note agreement with Achilles Capital AB for a loan of USD 400,000. This loan provided support for working capital while pursuing additional financing for the global expansion of the inq brand. When USD 600,000 of additional financing is obtained by 14 September 2025, this note will change into a Convertible Loan, on substantially the same terms as the Company’s existing convertible financing, as set out in the press release dated June 20, 2025; otherwise, the loan, including accrued interest at an annual rate of 8%, will become due and payable.
