DEME ANNOUNCES START OF NEW SHARE BUYBACK PROGRAM
Based on the shareholder authorization granted by the Extraordinary General Meeting of June 29, 2022, the Board of Directors of DEME Group NV has decided to launch a new share buyback program.
DEME intends to acquire a maximum of 40,000 shares to cover the company’s obligations under the stock option plan as part of its senior management incentive plan. The company currently holds 45,000 treasury shares allocated to its stock option plan.
The program will be effective from April 22, 2025, and is expected to be completed by October 31, 2025, at the latest.
DEME has mandated an independent broker to execute the program on its behalf on the regulated market of Euronext Brussels. The buyback program will be carried out in accordance with the ‘safe harbor’ procedure provided by Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of April 16, 2014, on market abuse (Market Abuse Regulation) and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 of March 8, 2016, supplementing the Market Abuse Regulation.
During the program, relevant information regarding the buyback of own shares will be disclosed regularly, including on the website www.deme-group.com.
