Maintal, 25 February 2026 – The Management Board of NORMA Group SE (ISIN DE000A1H8BV3) today resolved to launch a public share buyback offer to the shareholders of NORMA Group SE for a total of up to 3.186.240 Shares at a price of EUR 16.59 per share.

The share buyback will be carried out on the basis of the authorization to buy back own shares, which was resolved by the Annual General Meeting of NORMA Group SE on 13 May 2025 under agenda item 12. According to this authorization, the Company may repurchase treasury shares in the amount of up to 10% of the share capital until (and including) 12 May 2030. So far, no use has been made of the authorization. The company currently holds no treasury shares.

The repurchased shares can be used for all purposes permissible under the authorization of the Annual General Meeting of 13 May 2025. The shares can also be cancelled.

Further details of the public share buyback offer can be found in the offer document, which will be published before the start of the acceptance period on the website of NORMA Group SE (https://www.normagroup.com/global/en/investor-relations/share/share-buyback) under the heading "Investors – Share – Share Buyback" and subsequently in the German Federal Gazette (http://www.bundesanzeiger.de).

Notice to Norma Group shareholders in the United States:

The share buyback offer relates to securities in a non-US company which is incorporated in Germany and has its registered seat in Germany. The offer is subject to the disclosure requirements, rules and practices applicable to companies listed in Germany, which differ from those in the United States in certain material respects. Accordingly, the offer document has been prepared in accordance with German style and practice for the purpose of complying with German law. The financial information relating to the Company, which is available for review on the Company's website, has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and thus may not be comparable to financial information relating to US companies.

US shareholders should note that the NORMA Group shares are not listed on a US securities exchange and the Company is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "US Exchange Act"), and is not required to, and does not, file any reports with the US Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

The share buyback offer is not subject to the disclosure and other procedural requirements of Rule 13e-4 or Regulation 14D under the US Exchange Act. The offer will be made in the United States in accordance with Regulation 14E under the US Exchange Act to the extent applicable.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the offer by a shareholder who is a US person may be a taxable transaction for US federal income tax purposes and under applicable US state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws. Each such shareholder should consult and seek individual advice from an appropriate professional adviser.

While the share buyback offer is being made available to shareholders in the United States, the right to tender NORMA Group shares is not being made available in any jurisdiction in the United States in which the making of the offer or the right to tender such NORMA Group shares would not be in compliance with the laws of such jurisdiction.
