Essity said on Friday, October 30, 2026, that shareholders had requested the conversion of 200 Class A shares into Class B shares during October. The regulatory release, carried by Inderes, said the conversion reduces the companys total voting rights.

Following the conversion, Essity said total votes amounted to 1,167,610,740. The company had 681,945,171 registered shares, including 53,962,841 Class A shares and 627,982,330 Class B shares.

Voting rights and share structure

The conversion changes the balance between Essitys two share classes without changing the total number of registered shares cited in the release. Class A shares carry stronger voting rights than Class B shares, so a conversion into Class B shares reduces the aggregate vote count.

The disclosure reflects a shareholder request rather than a new operating target or financial forecast. For investors, the immediate significance is therefore concentrated on governance and voting power, while the companys operating outlook remains a separate question.
