Remuneration

Revenio's Remuneration Reporting consists of a Remuneration Policy to be submitted to the Annual General Meeting at least every four years and an annual Remuneration Report on the remuneration paid to the Company's bodies during the financial year.

The Remuneration Policy defines the principles for the remuneration of Revenio’s governing bodies, i.e. the Board of Directors and the CEO.


Remuneration Report

Revenio has published a Remuneration Report for the year 2025 in accordance with the Corporate Governance Code.


The objective of remuneration is to promote the implementation of Revenio’s strategy and Revenio’s long-term financial success, competitiveness, and the favorable development of shareholder value. Remuneration is the Company’s key incentive and a tool to commit key employees to the Company. Remuneration also plays a key role in ensuring competitive recruitment for the Company. The Company’s current strategy is a growth strategy, which the Company seeks to take into account in the methods and conditions of remuneration.

The Company’s objective is fair and encouraging remuneration at all organizational levels, which is why the Company’s employee salary and remuneration terms are also taken into consideration when deciding on the remuneration of governing bodies.

Statutory governing bodies are the Annual General Meeting, Board of Directors, and President & CEO, and Deputy President & CEO. The statutory governing bodies are supported by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Company may also have committees appointed by the Board of Directors.

The remunerations paid to the Board of Directors are decided by the Annual General Meeting. The Board prepares the remuneration proposal for the Annual General Meeting. The board of directors may appoint one or more of its members or nominate a committee to investigate the justifications for proposed performance-based pay systems and other benefits and to coordinate the use of possible outside experts. The company periodically assesses the competitiveness of the company’s remuneration in relation to other international listed companies with a similar market value.

The Annual General Meeting decides on the remuneration of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors prepares a remuneration proposal. The Company may also appoint a Remuneration Committee or an external expert to prepare remuneration-related proposals for the Board of Directors.

The remuneration of the Board consists of an annual fee and meeting fees paid based on attendance. The annual fee can consist either exclusively of a cash remuneration or it can be divided into shares paid in the Company’s shares and cash.

Approximately 40 percent of the Board members' annual remuneration (gross) will be settled in the form of the company’s shares held in its treasury, however not exceeding a maximum of 7,000 shares in total, while approximately 60 percent will consist of a monetary payment. Tax will be deducted from the monetary payment, calculated on the amount of the entire annual remuneration. The shares will be assigned to the Board members within two weeks of the release of Revenio Group Corporation’s interim report for the period of January 1 - March 31, 2025, using the trade volume weighted average price on the day following the release of the interim report as the share value.

The remuneration of the Group's leadership team consists of a fixed annual salary, fringe benefits, and short- and long-term incentives.

Revenio’s Board of Directors decides on the remuneration of the Group’s leadership team, other financial benefits, and the principles of the performance-based bonus system, including potential stock options and share-based compensation, in accordance with the conditions determined by the General Meeting and the Remuneration Policy presented to the General Meeting. Proposals for the remuneration of the Group's leadership team members are prepared by the Board or a committee appointed by it. However, the fixed salaries of the leadership team members are decided based on the CEO’s proposal. To avoid conflicts of interest, the individuals being rewarded cannot participate in decisions regarding their own remuneration.

The short-term incentives for leadership team members are determined annually based on the achievement of the company’s financial targets and individual performance goals set by the Board. Short-term incentive programs are based on business performance and the achievement of selected strategic objectives assigned to each management team member according to their role. In 2025, the targets for short-term performance bonuses and their achievement were based on Revenio’s comparable revenue, EBITDA, cash flow from operations, and other individual strategic objectives and ESG metrics.

The targets of long-term performance-based share-based compensation schemes are set and fixed for the entire earnings period at its start. Long-term incentives typically use a three-year earning period, and the payment of rewards is conditional on continued employment.

In the 2025 financial year, the total pay and remuneration of the Group's leadership team (excluding the CEO) was EUR 1,588,264.22 (2024: 1,272,395.81).

Leadership team members residing in Finland have a voluntary defined contribution supplementary pension insurance. Other members of the Group’s leadership team are covered by the statutory pension system of their respective country of residence.

Finnish leadership team members have life insurance, permanent disability insurance, leisure accident insurance, and business travel insurance. The entire leadership team is covered by management liability insurance.

The retirement age of leadership team members is determined by the statutory retirement age. For leadership team members residing outside Finland, the retirement age is determined according to the practices of each respective country. The notice period for members of the Group’s leadership team is six months.

Short-term incentive scheme

The purpose of the short-term incentive scheme is to support the achievement of Revenio's annual financial and strategic objectives. The payment of the short-term incentive is based on the meeting of performance criteria during the performance period. The performance criteria are decided by the Board of Directors. The highest possible annual short-term incentive for Revenio’s CEO corresponds to the fixed salary component for nine months. The criteria in the short-term incentive scheme are EBITDA and cash flow at the Group level and individual targets. It is possible for the CEO to invest an amount equal to two months’ salary from the short-term performance bonus in the personnel fund. The employee fund established by the Company is open to all employees of the Company in Finland. Employees may transfer to the personnel fund from their annual bonus an amount not exceeding two months' salary. Each employee decides for themselves whether they participate in the fund. Alternatively, bonuses can also be taken as salary. The Company pays an additional 25% on top of the amount transferred to the fund, with this additional amount corresponding to the statutory costs that the Company would have to pay if the bonus were paid as salary. The fund invests in the shares of Revenio Group Corporation.

Performance-based share plan (PSP)

The performance-based share plans consists of three-year performance periods. The Board of Directors decides separately on the minimum, target and maximum bonus as well as the performance criteria and related targets. The amount of the bonus to be paid depends on the development of the share price in accordance with the pre-defined targets. Bonus is not paid if the targets are not met or if the participant's employment relationship ends before the bonus is paid.
