PRESS RELEASE 11 March 2025

EQT AB resolves on repurchase of own ordinary shares

The Board of EQT AB ("EQT") has resolved to repurchase a maximum of 4,931,018 own ordinary shares.

• The resolution is made by virtue of the authorization granted by the Annual Shareholders' Meeting held on 27 May 2024 to repurchase own shares.
• A maximum of 4,931,018 ordinary shares (0.4% of EQT's share capital) are to be repurchased, and the total maximum amount is SEK 2,500,000,000.
• The repurchase corresponds to approximately SEK 1,464m based on the closing price for EQT's share on Nasdaq Stockholm on 11 March 2025¹ .
• Repurchases may be made during the period 12 March 16 May, 2025.
• As previously communicated, EQT expects to execute share buyback programs twice a year to offset - over time - the dilution impact from shares delivered to EQT's employees under its Share and Option incentive programs.
• Together with the share buyback program completed in August 2024, the buyback corresponds to the maximum potential dilution for the 2024 Share and Option incentive programs.

The repurchase program will be carried out in accordance with the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 ("MAR") and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2016/1052 (the "Safe Harbour Regulation").

• 1. Repurchases may be made on one or several occasions during the period 12 March 16 May, 2025.
• 1. Repurchases may only be effected at a price per share within the price interval applying on Nasdaq Stockholm from time to time, which refers to the interval between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price continuously disseminated by Nasdaq Stockholm, and in accordance with the restrictions relating to price in the Safe Harbour Regulation.

• 1. Repurchases may only be effected in accordance with the restrictions regarding volume for acquisitions of own shares stated in the Rulebook and in the Safe Harbour Regulation.
