This was a bit of a recap. But… Lindex and others probably follow the Securities Market Act. That means they don’t blab about important matters. Lindex mentioned the demerger in its December release, stating it “would be the best strategic way forward…”

So, we’ll have to wait for it. When there’s information to disclose, they’ll disclose it. “The company will publish additional information when it is timely.” So, there are no more schedules. Considering the global situation, this sounds reasonable. The decline in the stock price is likely due to many factors, but the most significant is probably the “vague future.” Whoever still believes in the value of about four euros, as once thought, can get Lindex at a discount at the current price.

Ongoing Disclosure: According to the Securities Market Act, a listed company must immediately disclose all information (stock exchange releases) that is likely to have a material effect on the value of the share. This ensures that all investors have access to the same information simultaneously.

Lindex Group Comments on Progress of Strategic Assessment of Department Store Business
As part of its ongoing strategic assessment, the Lindex Group has extensively explored strategic alternatives for Stockmann’s department store business. In connection with the assessment, the company’s Board of Directors has concluded that separating the department store business would be the best strategic way forward and has consequently investigated various options for implementing the separation. Although the profitability of the department store business has improved during 2025, the cash flow of the department store business remains negative, and it involves significant lease liabilities. This affects the feasibility of all considered options and their potential outcome.
The Board of Directors continues to assess strategic alternatives for the department store business and remains committed to finding the best possible long-term solution for the business and shareholders. The company will publish additional information when it is timely.
