D'Ieteren Group resumesits share buyback programme, which will have a solidarity impact

As announced on 8 March 2022, the Board of Directors of D'Ieteren Group SA ("D'Ieteren Group") has decided to resume its programme to purchase its own shares up to a maximum amount of €150m ("the Programme"). The Programme was launched on 28 August 20191 and temporarily suspended on 6 April 2020 to safeguard its liquidity during the COVID-19 crisis2. Under the Programme, D'Ieteren Group has purchased a total of 934,692 treasury shares for a total amount of €43,353,416 up to date. This leaves a remaining amount of €106,646,584 to be invested under the Programme.

D'Ieteren Group announces today that the re-launch of the Programme will be implemented as of Monday 16 May 2022 and will be carried out by Kepler Cheuvreux under an independent and discretionary mandate until the total remaining maximum value of €106,646,584 has been invested.

The Programme will take the form of a solidarity-based share buyback. This means that half of the outperformance3 realised by Kepler Cheuvreux will be allocated to projects supported as part of D'Ieteren Group's philanthropic approach and 5% to the Kepler Cheuvreux Foundation.

The expected term of the Programme is 9 to 12 months. D'Ieteren Group may however terminate, suspend or postpone the Programme if deemed appropriate with respect to the company's strategy, investment programmes and/or the evolution of its cash position. D'Ieteren Group will inform the market in due course of any such decision. D'Ieteren Group will also provide weekly information with respect to the buybacks carried out.
