The share buyback program will be carried out by way of purchases in the market.
Schibsted is entering into a non-discretionary agreement with the third party,
who will make its trading decisions independently of and uninfluenced by
Schibsted.
The buyback will be conducted in a period lasting from 20 September 2022 and
until the closing of the market on 4 November 2022. Buying will take place in
tranches, with daily purchases limited to a maximum of 25 per cent of the
average daily volume traded in the previous month (average daily volume traded
for Schibsted's B-shares in August 2022 was 129,963 shares). The total purchase
amount and number of shares is around NOK 88 million based on the closing price
on 16 September 2022 and 600,000 shares.
Schibsted's Board of Directors has resolved that the share purchases carried out
under this buyback programme shall be done at a minimum price of NOK 50 per
share, and a maximum price of NOK 350 per share.
Schibsted will report its purchases every seventh trading day.
The transactions will be conducted in accordance with the Market Abuse
