Citigiro Holding AB (“Citigiro”), which holds more than 10 percent of the total number of shares and votes in Valuno Group AB (publ) (“Valuno” or the “Company”), has today, 23 January 2026, submitted a request to the Company’s Board of Directors to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Extraordinary General Meeting is intended to consider proposals regarding changes to the Company’s Board of Directors.<\/p>\n

The proposals aim to further strengthen Valuno’s Board of Directors by adding complementary competencies and experience. In connection with this, Citigiro and the Chairman of the Board, Peter Liljeroos, have mutually agreed that Peter Liljeroos will step down from his role as Chairman of the Board.<\/p>\n

The Extraordinary General Meeting is also intended to consider proposals to elect Martin Osterloh and Gunnar Axén as members of the Board of Directors for the period until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. Gunnar Axén is also proposed as the new Chairman of the Board.<\/p>\n

Gunnar Axén has a long and broad background in politics, business and strategic board work. He is currently Chairman of the Board of Citigiro Holding AB and previously served as a Member of the Swedish Parliament for the Moderate Party for more than 15 years and, during that time, held assignments including Chairman of the Committee on Social Insurance and also participated in the work of the Committee on Finance. He has also served as a board member of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen). After his parliamentary career, Axén has continued in roles focused on communications, public opinion, public affairs and corporate governance, where, as an advisor, chairman and board member, he has often played an active role in strategic shifts and change processes.<\/p>\n

Martin Osterloh is an internationally experienced leader in fintech and payment infrastructure with more than 20 years of experience from senior commercial roles in the global payments industry. For nearly 15 years he held a prominent position at Wirecard, where he served, among other roles, as Vice President responsible for digital sales and strategic customer relationships, and was involved in the company’s international expansion. Osterloh is currently active within Mandato Financial Services, focusing on business development and partnerships within financial infrastructure, including international payment flows and stablecoin-related structures.<\/p>\n

If the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves in accordance with the proposals, Valuno’s Board of Directors will consist of Martin Osterloh, Gunnar Axén, Chris Hutchinson and Mikael Fallström.<\/p>\n

Peter Liljeroos, Chairman of the Board of Valuno Group AB (publ), comments:
“It has been a turbulent but very interesting and rewarding period. I will be at the disposal of the new Chairman and will, of course, contribute with support and continuity to the extent desired. I now hand over the Chairman’s gavel to Gunnar Axén and have full confidence in Citigiro’s commitment and ability to, together with Valuno’s organisation, take the Company forward to new heights.”<\/p>\n

Gunnar Axén, proposed Chairman of the Board, comments:
“Citigiro is now strengthening its commitment to Valuno, which is one of our most important investments. I would also like to extend my warm thanks to Peter for his dedicated work during a period characterised by major changes and a high pace.”<\/p>\n

The notice convening the Extraordinary General Meeting will be published separately in the near term. It is also likely that the Extraordinary General Meeting will consider proposals regarding the election of a new auditor.
