Update on GAP II shareholder returns

Informa (LSE: INF.L), the international B2B Markets, Knowledge Services and Business Intelligence Group today provided an update on its Share Buyback Programme that forms part of the 2021-2024 Growth Acceleration Plan II ('GAP II').

Share Buyback Programme

GAP II is Informa's four-year programme to create a more focused, higher growth business. This will see the Group accelerate investment in its two businesses with scale leadership positions, B2B Markets and Academic Markets, and divest of its Informa Intelligence portfolio of businesses.

Following the completion of the first tranche of the Share Buyback Programme, which saw £100m of capital returned to shareholders, on 15 March 2022, the Company announced a second tranche, committing a further £200m to share buybacks.

As part of this second tranche, on 06 June 2022, the Company purchased 747,308 ordinary shares for cancellation through Merrill Lynch International at an average price of 554.5754 pence per share.

The highest and lowest purchase price paid per share were 559.6p and 541.4p respectively, with the aggregate details of shares purchased by trading venue as outlined in the table below:
