Deutsche Post AG Expands Share Buyback Programme

Deutsche Post AG has announced a significant expansion of its share buyback programme. Initially set in February 2022, the programme aimed to repurchase up to 50 million shares for €2 billion. However, by February 2025, this target has been raised to 210 million shares at a total value of €6 billion.

The buyback commenced in April 2022 and will conclude by December 2026. Tranches implemented so far have aggregated a volume of €3.2 billion, equating to approximately 6.8% of the company's share capital.

This strategic decision seeks to utilize repurchased shares for various corporate obligations, including retirement, executive remuneration, and employee offerings. The initiative follows the authorization of Annual General Meetings between 2021 and 2023, adhering to strict regulations to ensure market stability and compliance.
