This decision demonstrates the executive board’s alignment to shareholder interests, with the company focused on minimizing costs as it works towards delivering a successful IPO.
The IPO remains a key strategic priority for airBaltic, reinforcing the company’s financial resilience and enabling further expansion. The voluntary salary reduction will be aligned to compensation upon the IPO and reflects the executive board’s strong belief in airBaltic’s value proposition.
