Share Buyback

At the Annual General Meeting on May 12, 2019, Covestro AG was authorized to acquire treasury shares up to a total of 10% of the company's existing capital stock. Within the framework of this authorization, the Board of Management resolved on February 28, 2022 to launch a share buyback program with a total volume of approximately EUR 500 million (excluding incidental acquisition costs), to be completed within two years. On October 26, 2023, the Board of Management decided to terminate the remaining ongoing share buyback program ahead of schedule. This decision has been taken due to the current overall situation and the limited time remaining until the end of the program on February 28, 2024 and the authorization of the Annual General Meeting expiring on April 11, 2024. As such, EUR 199 million of the intended EUR 500 million share buyback were executed. Covestro bought back 4.7 million shares with an average price of EUR 42.50 per share. Covestro plans to seek for a renewal of the authorization during the Annual General Meeting in 2024 to continue share buybacks in the future.

In the past, Covestro AG acquired shares totalling more than 9.8% of the capital stock or worth just under EUR 1.5 billion between November 2017 and December 2018.
