Alfa Laval: Alfa Laval’s Board of Directors Withdraws Buy-Back Proposal

Regulatory News:

The Board of Directors of Alfa Laval AB (publ)(STO:ALFA) has decided to withdraw its proposal to the Annual General Meeting, regarding a resolution authorising the Board to buy-back shares in the company, following Alfa Laval’s agreement to acquire Frank Mohn AS.

Alfa Laval announced on April 7, 2014 that an agreement had been signed to acquire Frank Mohn AS. For this reason, the Board of Alfa Laval has decided to withdraw item 17 (encompassing the resolution to authorize the Board to buy back shares in the company) from the agenda of Alfa Laval's Annual General Meeting 2014.

The purpose of the authorization was to enable the Board to adjust the company’s capital structure, after which the Board intended to propose the next Annual General Meeting to approve the cancellation of the shares repurchased by Alfa Laval under the authorization. Given the size of the acquisition of Frank Mohn AS, it is the Board’s assessment that such an authorization is not required for the period until the next Annual General Meeting and the item is therefore withdrawn.

The Annual General Meeting will be held at 4 p.m. CET, April 28, 2014 in accordance with the earlier made notice.
