The Nomination Committee of Kjell Group AB (publ) supplements its proposal ahead of the Annual General Meeting on 20 May 2026. The supplement consists of the Nomination Committee also proposing the election of Pål Wibe as a new Board member.

He has previously served as CEO of Europris ASA, XXL ASA and Nille AS, and has extensive experience in developing and transforming retail companies in competitive markets. The Nomination Committee considers that his in-depth knowledge of the Nordic retail sector, particularly the Norwegian market, combined with his experience of digitalisation, strategy and value-creating change initiatives, will be a valuable asset to the Kjell Group board. Pål Wibe’s other current appointments include Chairman of the Board of Posten Bring AS, Forte Group AS, Whiteaway Group A/S and Whiteaway A/S.

The Nomination Committee’s supplemented proposal means that the Board is proposed to consist of six members, with the re-election of the current Board members Adeline Sterner, David Zaudy, Ebba Ljungerud and Ola Burmark and the election of Pål Wibe as new Board member and Göran Westerberg as new Chairman of the Board. The current Chairman of the Board, Jan Friedman, has declined re-election.
The Nomination Committee consists of David Zaudy, appointed by Cervantes Capital, Joel Eklund, appointed by the Eklund family, and Bo Börtemark, appointed by Jofam AB.
