shares (FI4000297767) at an average price per share of EUR 11.89.
On 6 March 2025, Nordea announced a share buy-back of up to EUR 250m, based on
the authorisation granted to the Board by the 2024 Annual General Meeting. The
purpose of share buy-backs is to maintain an efficient capital structure and
improve shareholder returns. Since the inception of the inaugural buy-back
programme in October 2021, Nordea has distributed EUR 6.0bn to its shareholders
through repurchasing around 588 million shares at an average price of EUR 10.19
per share.
Nordea repurchased the shares in public trading otherwise than in proportion to
the shareholdings of its shareholders (directed repurchases). The repurchased
shares were cancelled on a monthly basis.
The repurchases of this buy-back programme reduced the company's unrestricted
equity by EUR 250m. Nordea now holds 10,704,874treasury shares for capital
optimisation purposes and 10,299,096 treasury shares for remuneration purposes.
Nordea aims to keep returning excess capital to shareholders through share buy
-backs and is in close dialogue with the European Central Bank (ECB) regarding a
new programme.
