Airbus commences multi-year share buyback programme, with launch of the first tranche
Airbus SE (stock exchange symbol: AIR) is commencing the multi-year share buyback programme that was communicated to the market upon its approval by the Board of Directors, in conjunction with the Airbus Business Update held on 21 July 2026 and as part of its commitment to further strengthen shareholder returns.
The programme will be executed in the market over a period ending no later than 31 July 2029, in multiple tranches, for a total amount of up to € 5 billion (or the equivalent amount in shares). Airbus intends to cancel the shares acquired through the programme.
The first tranche under the programme will be executed from 9 November 2026 through 23 December 2026, up to a maximum amount of € 800 million (or the equivalent amount in shares), with the rate of repurchase and total amount repurchased during the period being subject to market conditions. Airbus has mandated an investment firm to manage the execution of the first tranche under the programme. The investment firm will make its trading decisions concerning the timing of purchases independently of Airbus.
The programme is undertaken pursuant to the authority granted by shareholders to the Airbus Board of Directors at the Airbus Annual General Meeting held on 14 April 2026, to repurchase up to a maximum of 10% of the Company’s issued share capital. Execution of the programme is subject to continued shareholder approval.
The programme will be carried out subject to market conditions and in compliance with applicable rules and regulations, including the Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on market abuse (“EU Market Abuse Regulation”) and its Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2016/1052 (the “Delegated Regulation”).
