The Board of Directors of Citycon Oyj ("Citycon" or the "Company") has decided to initiate a share buy-back programme and to start repurchasing the Company's own shares (ISIN code FI4000369947) on the basis of the authorisation given by the Annual General Meeting of Citycon on 3 April 2025. The shares shall be repurchased to distribute surplus funds received from the divestments executed in 2024 to the shareholders of Citycon and to enhance future value creation. The Company considers that the decrease in the number of shares due to the repurchase and the cancellation of the repurchased shares after the completion of the programme constitutes the most favourable option for the Company to pursue a more efficient capital structure. The main terms of the share buy-back programme are the following:
The shares shall be repurchased in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq Helsinki. Citycon has appointed a third-party broker as the lead manager for the buy-back programme. The broker will make trading decisions independently, without influence from Citycon.
