Summary by AI BETAClose X
The Board of Directors of Better Collective A/S (the “Company”) hereby convenes an Extraordinary General Meeting to be held by electronic procedure on Friday 9 January 2026 at 2:30 pm CET.
Regulatory release no. 61/2025
The Extraordinary General Meeting will be held as an electronic general meeting without the possibility of physical attendance in accordance with section 6.4 of the Company’s articles of association.
Agenda:
- Appointment of the Chair of the general meeting.
- Proposal on reduction of the Company’s share capital by cancellation of treasury shares.
- Proposal on authorisation to the Chair of the meeting.
Re. item 1. Appointment of the Chair of the general meeting.
The Board of Directors will appoint attorney Andreas Nielsen as chair of the extraordinary general meeting.
Re item 2. Proposal on reduction of the Company’s share capital by cancellation of treasury shares.
As of 16 December 2025, the Company has through its share buy-back programmes (a) commenced on 19 February 2025 and completed on 22 April 2025, (b) commenced on 22 May 2025 and completed on 27 August 2025 and (c) commenced on 27 August 2025 (ongoing), acquired a total of nominally EUR 32,040.20 shares, representing 5.17% of the Company’s outstanding share capital. The purpose of the share buy-back programmes has, among other things, been to optimise and improve the capital structure of the Company by reducing the capital. See also the Company’s regulatory releases no. 3/2025, 20/2025 and 38/2025.
The Board of Directors proposes that the Company’s share capital be reduced by a nominal amount of EUR 32,040.20 by cancellation of 3,204,020 treasury shares of EUR 0.01 each, equal to approximately 5.17% of the Company’s total share capital. The purpose of the reduction is to cancel all of the Company’s portfolio of treasury shares held as of the date of this notice, cf. section 188 of the Danish Companies Act. According to the Danish Business Authority’s practice, this purpose may be compared to a capital reduction to be distributed to the shareholders, cf. section 188 (1)(2) of the Danish Companies Act. To that end, the Board of Directors states that the 3,204,020 treasury shares (nominally EUR 32,040.20 shares) that are proposed to be cancelled have been acquired in the period between 19 February 2025 to and including 16 December 2025 for a total amount of EUR 43,126,109.20, based on an SEK to EUR exchange rate of 9.139, meaning that in addition to reduction of nominally EUR 32,040.20 shares, an amount of EUR 43,094,069.00 has been distributed to the shareholders.
Following the capital reduction, the Company’s nominal share capital will be EUR 587,548.50.
As a result of the capital reduction, the Board of Directors proposes that article 3.1 of the articles of association be amended to read as follows after expiry of the time limit prescribed in section 192 (1) of the Danish Companies Act:
“The share capital of the Company amounts to EUR 587,548.50 and is divided into shares of EUR 0.01 each or multiples thereof. The share capital is paid in full.”
A draft of the proposed new articles of association (redline against the current articles) is enclosed with this notice as Schedule 1.
Before the capital reduction is implemented, the Company’s creditors will, through the IT system of the Danish Business Authority (Erhvervsstyrelsen), be requested to file their claims within four weeks in accordance with section 192(1) of the Danish Companies Act. The implementation of the capital reduction and the resulting amendment to the Articles of Association will be finally registered upon the expiry of the time limit.
In accordance with section 156(2)(i)-(iii), cf. section 185 of the Danish Companies Act, the following documents are enclosed with this notice as Schedules 2-4: (a) the most recently approved Annual Report, (b) a report from the Board of Directors, and (c) a statement from the auditor on the Board of Directors’ report. The documents are also available on the Company’s website.
Re item 3. Proposal on authorisation to the Chair of the meeting.
It is proposed to authorise the Chair of the meeting with full power of subrogation to apply for registration of the resolutions passed and to make any such amendments thereto as may be required or requested by the Danish Business Authority or any other public authority as a condition for such registration or approval.
Additional information
Adoption requirements
