EMBRACER GROUP TO INITIATE SEK 500 MILLION SHARE BUYBACK PROGRAMME

[ 18 September 2025 ]

Embracer Group AB has announced its intention to initiate a share buyback programme of up to SEK 500 million, commencing on Friday, 19 September 2025. The initiative is conditional upon authorisation by the company's annual general meeting, which is scheduled to take place today. The programme will be carried out in accordance with the EU Market Abuse Regulation (596/2014) and the European Commission's Delegated Regulation 2016/1052, also referred to as the Safe Harbor Regulation.

The buybacks, limited to class B shares, will be executed on Nasdaq Stockholm by SB1 Markets, which will independently determine both the execution and timing of the purchases. The terms stipulate that shares may only be acquired at a price not exceeding the higher of the last independent trade and the highest current independent purchase bid. Purchases will also adhere to the volume restrictions and other provisions outlined in the Nasdaq Nordic Main Market Rule Book, the Market Abuse Regulation and the Safe Harbor Regulation. The programme will run until no later than 2 December 2025.

Embracer has stated that the purpose of the programme is to optimise the company's capital structure and, in doing so, enhance shareholder value. To that end, the board of directors intends to propose that repurchased shares be cancelled by way of a reduction of share capital no later than the annual general meeting in 2026. The group, which has a total of 225,119,707 shares, comprising 9,000,000 A shares and 216,119,707 B shares, currently holds 138,104 of its own B shares.
