Share Buy-Back Programme - Commencement of Second
Tranche
6 September 2022
London -
Unilever PLC announces the commencement of the second tranche of
its programme to buy back shares with an aggregate market value
equivalent of up to €3 billion.
On 10 February 2022, Unilever PLC announced its fourth quarter and
full year 2021 results and a share buyback programme of up to
€3 billion to be conducted over the next two
years.
On 23 March 2022, Unilever PLC announced commencement of the first
tranche of this buyback programme (the "Initial Programme") for an
aggregate market value equivalent to
€750,000,000.
Unilever PLC now announces commencement of the second tranche of
this buyback programme (the "New Programme") for an aggregate
market value equivalent to €750,000,000 which will be bought
back in the form of Unilever PLC ordinary shares.
Any further tranches of the buyback programme, which may be
conducted after completion of the New Programme, will be announced
in due course. The purpose of the New Programme is to reduce the
capital of Unilever PLC and it will take place within the
limitations of the authority granted to the Board of Unilever PLC
by its general meeting, held on 4th May 2022, pursuant to which the
maximum number of shares to be bought back by Unilever PLC is
256,262,000.
The New Programme will commence on 6 September 2022 and will end on
or before 23 December 2022.
Unilever PLC has entered into non-discretionary instructions with
Morgan Stanley & Co. International PLC to conduct the New
Programme on its behalf and to make trading decisions under the New
Programme independently of Unilever PLC.
