(Nedre Vats, September 14, 2026): All permanent employees (the "Permanent Employees") of AutoStore Holdings Ltd. ("AutoStore", OSE:AUTO) and its subsidiaries (the "Group") have been invited to participate in the employee share purchase plan for 2026 (the "2026 Program").
The application period expired today, September 14, 2026 at 16:30 hours (CEST).
Through the 2026 Program, the Permanent Employees were offered to apply for shares in AutoStore for a minimum investment amount of NOK 1,000 and a maximum investment amount of NOK 1,000,000. Shares purchased will be subject to a two-year lock-up period.
The Permanent Employees have applied for a total of 972,905 shares in AutoStore by the end of the application period.
AutoStore reserves the right to cancel purchases by any applicant if the applicant fails to make timely payment for the shares to AutoStore. The shares delivered to the applicants subject to timely payment, will be existing shares held in treasury by AutoStore.
The purchase price for each share under the 2026 Program was NOK 12.54, which is equal to the volume-weighted average share price for AutoStore's shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange during the 30 trading days prior to the offer, which was from August 27, 2026 to September 14, 2026 at 16:30 hours (CEST), with a reduction of 20% to compensate for the lock-up undertaking.
