Members of Hydro’s Executive Leadership Team have received shares in Hydro via the Long-Term Incentive plan and purchased shares via the employee share purchase program.
Long-Term Incentive plan
Norsk Hydro ASA has a share-based Long-Term Incentive (LTI) program in the form of a maximum remuneration of 30 percent of the annual base salary, dependent on two equally weighted performance metrics for the President and CEO, and the other members of the Executive Leadership Team.
The two performance measures are 1.) Hydro's three year average adjusted RoaCE relative to Hydro's adjusted RoaCE target, with adjusted RoaCE based on market value of equity, and 2.) Hydro's three year Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to a group of peers.
The LTI payment is conditional on Hydro having a positive adjusted EBIT in the previous year. The participants will be required to invest the net amount after tax in Hydro shares and they must hold the shares for at least three years.
On April 22, 2026, the below listed primary insiders received shares allocated under the LTI plan at NOK 87.36 per share.
Sale of shares to employees
Primary insiders in Hydro have also agreed to purchase shares under a general arrangement offered to employees employed by Hydro in Norway each year.
All employees in Norway have been offered to purchase shares valued at NOK 29,964.48, with a 50 percent discount. For employees taking part in this arrangement, the share price is NOK 43.68. per share, for 343 shares, and shares were transferred on April 22, 2026.
