Norsk Hydro: Initiation of share buyback program
10 September 2024 - 7:00PM
The Board of Directors of Norsk Hydro ASA has resolved to
initiate a share buyback program to service its shareholders by way
of reducing its share capital. The share buyback program will be
executed in accordance with the authorization granted to the Board
of Directors by the Annual General Meeting of Norsk Hydro held on
May 7, 2024.
The share buyback program covers purchase of up to 100,000,000
shares with a maximum value of NOK 2,000 million, inclusive of the
proportional redemption of shares owned by the Norwegian State. NOK
2,000 million is equivalent to approximately 1.8% of the market
value of the share capital in Norsk Hydro at the current share
price level.
The buyback program will commence September 11, 2024 and is
planned finalized within February 28, 2025, with the authorization
being valid until June 30, 2025. The shares repurchased under the
buyback program will be redeemed (cancelled) by way of a share
capital decrease in Norsk Hydro, subject to approval by Norsk
Hydro's General Meeting.
The minimum and maximum amounts that can be paid per share shall
be NOK 20 and NOK 150, respectively.
Norsk Hydro has entered an agreement with the Norwegian State
according to which the Norwegian State's shares will be redeemed on
a pro-rata basis to ensure that the Norwegian State's ownership is
unchanged when shares are cancelled.
Norsk Hydro has engaged Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG to
manage and carry out the share repurchases in the market. Citigroup
Global Markets Europe AG will make its trading decisions
independently of, and uninfluenced by, Norsk Hydro.
The share buyback program is carried out in accordance with the
Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 ("MAR") and Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2016/1052 ("Safe Harbour
Regulation").
