The program is expected to start during the month of April 2025 and to be carried out until March 31, 2026, at the latest, with the involvement of a bank via the stock market. The Management Board is thus making use of the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting on April 24, 2023, to purchase treasury shares of up to 10 percent of the capital stock. Henkel intends to hold the repurchased shares initially as treasury shares, reserving the right to cancel them and reduce the capital stock accordingly.
Henkel will provide information on the start and progress of the share buyback program by appropriate publications and on its website and reserves the right to interrupt and resume or discontinue the share buyback program at any time. In this context, Henkel reconfirms that acquisitions in both business units remain an integral part of its strategy.
