This Company Announcement contains inside information
Today, the Board of Directors of Valuer Holding A/S decided to engage Vindhesh Kumar as new CEO of the Company from no later than December 2022. He comes with the rare combination of having been heavily involved in technology innovation in some of the largest global corporations, such as LG, Samsung and Phillips, whilst at the same time having a strong commercial profile. Together with an international recruitment firm, the Board had precisely looked for a candidate with such a strong international background. Among a number of candidates for this position, the Board therefore found his profile best suited for the position as CEO of Valuer Holding A/S.
As part of the remuneration package agreed with Vindhesh Kumar, the Board has agreed to allocate 200,000 warrants to be granted to Vindhesh Kumar. The final warrants terms, including the exercise price, are not yet defined and are subject to the formal decision by the Board to exercise its authority to issue new warrants pursuant to section 4.1 of the Articles of Association.
Vindhesh Kumar substitutes Susanne Larsson who has acted as interim CEO. The Board thanks her for a valuable contribution to, for example, a cost-cutting programme and a strengthening of client relationships. Furthermore, the Board intends to propose that Susanne Larsson re-joins the Board and subsequently participates in the Board leadership of the company.
