Overview of Netcompany's Share Buyback Programme
In a significant move to enhance its capital management strategy, Netcompany Group A/S has initiated a share buyback programme. This programme aims to repurchase shares valued at up to DKK 500 million, targeting a maximum of 3,700,000 shares. This decision, announced on August 14, underscores the company's commitment to adjusting its capital structure while fulfilling obligations related to its share-based incentive plans.
Regulatory Framework for the Buyback
The share buyback is being conducted according to the EU Market Abuse Regulation, specifically under EU Regulation no. 596/2014, and follows the guidelines set forth in the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052. These regulations are designed to ensure that such buyback activities are carried out transparently and in a manner that safeguards market integrity. The buyback programme will be in effect until no later than January 30, 2026, allowing ample time for the execution of planned transactions.
