Impact Evaluation

• Market Cap Context: The transaction value is $0, making it entirely immaterial against Autoliv's $9.17 billion market capitalization.
• Ownership Concentration: The transaction results in a negligible change to the director's holdings, which remain a very small fraction of the total shares outstanding.
• Dilution Impact: The issuance of 12.5 shares has a zero dilution impact on the 76.8 million shares outstanding.
• Transaction Significance: The filing is of low significance. It represents an automatic accrual of dividend equivalents, as specified in the footnotes of the original RSU grant. This is not a discretionary trade and provides no new information about the insider's view of the company.
