Autoliv Elects Rosenberg, Revises By-Laws, and Declares Q4 Dividend

According to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 13, 2026, Autoliv, Inc. (NYSE:ALV) reported three separate actions taken by its Board of Directors on November 9, 2026. First, the Board voted to expand its membership from nine to ten directors and immediately elected Joachim Rosenberg to fill the resulting vacancy. Mr. Rosenberg's term is set to expire at the company's 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The filing states that Mr. Rosenberg will enter into an indemnification agreement in substantially the same form as those previously executed with the company's existing officers and directors. The company disclosed that there are "no transactions in which Mr. Rosenberg has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K" and that "there is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Rosenberg and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director." His compensation will be consistent with that of other independent directors.

Separately, the Board amended the company's governing documents, adopting the Fourth Restated By-Laws effective November 9, 2026. The filing describes the changes as primarily intended to modernize the advance notice by-law provision for stockholder nominations and business proposals, including updates to address SEC rules relating to universal proxy cards, to require additional disclosure from director nominees including information on derivative and hedging transactions, and to establish a forum selection provision designating Delaware or federal courts as the exclusive forum for certain claims. The filing also notes that the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.00 per share for the fourth quarter of 2026, payable on December 9, 2026, to holders of common stock, and on December 10, 2026, to holders of Swedish Depository Receipts, with a record date of November 20, 2026.
