Studsvik is growing and building for the future
Second quarter
|
January – June
|
Events during the quarter
- Studsvik completed the acquisition of Kärnfull Next AB, thereby taking an important step to broaden its new build offering. As part of the transaction a directed share issue was carried out, increasing the total number of shares in Studsvik AB by 124,959 (dilution of 1.5 per cent), from 8,218,611 to 8,343,570 shares.
- In May Studsvik submitted an application to the Swedish Government to establish between 600 and 1,400 MW of new nuclear power at and adjacent to the company’s site in Nyköping. The application supplements the Group’s earlier application for an SMR project in Valdemarsvik and marks an important step in the ReFirm programme. ReFirm is the collective name for Studsvik’s programme to develop new nuclear power in the form of small modular reactors (SMRs) in Sweden. In June Studsvik submitted an application to the Ministry of Finance regarding state support for the development of new nuclear power in Sweden.
- During the quarter we entered into a partnership with US-based Lightbridge on software for advanced nuclear fuel, for the light-water reactors of today and tomorrow. We also signed our first US customer agreement for our software within Advanced Reactors (AMR).
- During the quarter allotment was made under the company’s long-term performance-based share programme LTIP 2026/2029. The programme aims to create long-term commitment among senior executives and key employees, and to align the interests of participants with those of Studsvik’s shareholders. During the quarter a total of 256,000 class E shares (hurdle shares) related to LTIP were issued and repurchased.
- The Executive Management Team was strengthened by the addition of John Ahlberg (Chief Marketing Officer), Christian Sjölander (Head of New Build Projects) and Ramona Michel (Business Area President, Decommissioning & Radiation Protection Services).
