Share classes

A share class defines the voting rights and nominal value attached to a group of shares in your company. The Share classes tab gives you a complete view of every share class — how many shares each class has, the total share capital it represents, and the voting rights attached to each share. Share classes are imported automatically when you onboard a company, and you can add or adjust them at any time.

What each share class shows

Each share class card displays:

• Number of shares — the total shares currently issued in this class
• Share capital — the total nominal value (NOK) for the class
• Voting rights — how many votes one share in this class carries

The nominal value per share is shown at the top of the page and applies across all classes.

Adding a share class

You can add a new share class in three ways:

Manually — click New share class on the Share classes tab, select the class type, set the number of votes per share, and save.

During transaction registration — when registering a transaction that involves a new class, you can create the class on the spot as part of the transaction flow.

During Document robot setup — when configuring an automated corporate event that creates a new class (such as a share capital increase with new class), the Document robot creates it for you.

New share classes default to 1 vote per share. You can change this to any value — including 0 for non-voting shares or 0.5 for fractional voting rights.

Available share class types

dCompany includes a standard set of named classes:

Common shares, A-shares, B-shares, C-shares, D through J-shares, Preference shares, Extraordinary shares

If none of these fit, select Custom share class to define your own.

Custom share classes

A custom share class lets you define the name in three languages — English, Norwegian, and Swedish — each with its own separator rule between the name and the word "share" or "aksje". Live examples update as you type so you can see exactly how the class name will appear in documents and reports.

You also map the custom class to a standard Reporting type RF-1086 category for tax reporting purposes.

Remarks

The Remarks section at the bottom of the Share classes tab is a free-text field that applies to the company's share structure as a whole. Use it to note vesting schedules, shareholder agreement terms, commitment structures, or any other conditions that readers of the register should be aware of.

Where share classes appear

Share classes feed into the rest of the shareholder register automatically. The Shareholders tab lets you filter and group by share class, the Transactions tab records which class each transaction affects, and the Shareholder register statement exports the correct breakdown per class for regulatory submission.
