In accordance with article 7:215 of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations, Syensqo SA (“Syensqo” or the “Company”) announces the launch of a new share buyback program (the “2026 LTI Share Buyback Program”), effective as of March 24, 2026.
The repurchase of Syensqo shares under the 2026 LTI Share Buyback Program intends to cover current and future obligations under Syensqo's current Long Term Incentive Plans for its employees in accordance with the Company’s Board-approved hedging policy.
Under this program, Syensqo may acquire a maximum of 260,000 Syensqo shares. The 2026 LTI Share Buyback Program will commence on March 24, 2026 and will run until March 30, 2026 at the latest. Any shares acquired under this program will be held as treasury shares.
The 2026 LTI Share Buyback Program will be implemented both through acquisitions on Euronext Brussels and CBOE-DXE, and through off-market transactions including intra-group acquisitions from Syensqo Stock Option Management SA (SSOM).
The 2026 LTI Share Buyback Program will be carried out under the terms and conditions of the authorization granted by the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of the Company on 8 December 2023. The on-market transactions will be executed by an independent financial intermediary under the terms of a discretionary mandate agreement.
