ROCKWOOL A/S Launches New RSU Program for Key Employees
ROCKWOOL A/S Implements Restricted Share Unit Initiative
In a significant development for employee engagement, ROCKWOOL A/S has announced its decision to introduce a Restricted Share Unit (RSU) program. This initiative is designed to foster a stronger alignment between the interests of their key employees and the shareholders’ expectations. By granting RSUs, the company aims to incentivize a commitment to the long-term success of the organization.
Details of the RSU Program
The Board of Directors at ROCKWOOL A/S has planned to allocate a total of 68,447 RSUs, inclusive of phantom units, to a select group of up to 85 key employees, including those in Group Management. Each RSU will entitle the recipient to receive one ROCKWOOL B share, with the additional option for a cash-based settlement for phantom units upon vesting.
The careful calculation of the fair value of the RSUs, pegged at 310.79 DKK, reflects the average price of ROCKWOOL B shares over the preceding fifteen days. The pricing also factors in a recent stock split that aims to enhance stock liquidity and accessibility for existing and prospective shareholders.
Vesting Period and Shareholder Rights
The RSUs will have a vesting period, set to conclude on 23 May 2028. Only after this period ends will the allocated RSUs be converted into B shares or cash compensation, contingent upon the participant's ongoing employment within the ROCKWOOL Group. This structure ensures that the interests of both the employees and the shareholders are well-aligned for the duration of the vesting timeframe.
Rights of RSU Holders
While participants will not possess shareholder rights during the vesting period, they are guaranteed the eventual transfer of shares or cash settlement based on the performance of the company's stocks. Furthermore, to underline transparency, ROCKWOOL A/S will disclose information regarding the transfer of shares to registered management in their annual remuneration report.
Legal Framework and Shareholder Impact
Being fully compliant with Danish law and the established remuneration policy, this RSU plan is strategically positioned to not only reward key personnel but also to have a neutral impact on current shareholders. Through this initiative, existing shareholders are assured that their ownership will not be diluted.
