Description of Share buyback program - May 2026

Sure! Here's a clear summary of the UBS Buy-Back Program – Purpose section: --- ### 🎯 Purpose of the Buy-Back Programme UBS Group AG is launching a new share buy-back programme after completing its earlier 2022–2024 programme. This new initiative received authorization not only in UBS shareholders’ meetings but also from Credit Suisse Group AG shareholders under specific agenda items and capital structure rules. For Swiss regulatory purposes, UBS is publishing the required "information document" according to Article 65 of the Swiss Financial Market Infrastructure Ordinance (FMIO). However, it clarifies that this document is *not* a prospectus under Swiss or EU law (including the Swiss Financial Services Act and Swiss Code of Obligations), nor is it a public offering in the legal sense. A few key points to highlight: - 🧾 **No Public Offer:** The document is informational and does not constitute a public offer to buy shares. - 📘 **Jurisdiction-Specific:** Any existing offering documentation remains valid only for the specific jurisdictions and investor categories originally targeted. - 🌍 **International Law Compliance:** The information isn’t directed at any person or entity in areas where accessing such information would be unlawful. Specifically, it’s not intended for: - U.S. residents or persons, - Persons or entities in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, Australia, or Canada. In short, UBS is setting up a new buy-back programme under Swiss law and international regulatory standards, while stressing that this is an internally authorized corporate action and not a public solicitation for investors.
