The Board of Directors decides on the management’s incentive and remuneration systems on the basis of the CEO’s proposal.
The salary of all Management Group members consists of a fixed base salary, fringe benefits and a performance-based bonus. In addition, the members of the Management Group who are covered by the Finnish pension insurance system have group pension insurance, the contributions to which are based on the annual salary of the insured person, excluding bonuses. The payment is 25% of the aforementioned salary.
Long-term incentive schemes (LTI)
The members of the Management Group participate in the company’s long-term incentive schemes, the purpose of which is to promote long-term sustainable growth and align the interests of senior management and shareholders.
Performance Matching Share Plan 2020-2022
The Performance Matching Share Plan is based on the achievement of three-year targets related to Teleste’s share price (Total Shareholder Return, TSR) and a fixed matching share reward (ratio 2:1). The reward is paid in one instalment after three years, partly in shares and partly in cash. The cash component covers taxes and tax-like payments.
The bonus paid to the members of the Management Group ranges from 0-100 per cent of their fixed annual salary depending on performance and the share price. If Teleste’s share price increases threefold during the course of the three-year share plan, the participants will not be paid rewards exceeding the threefold increase in the share price. The incentive scheme is targeted at specifically designated key employees, including the Group CEO and the members of the Management Group.
