HELSINKI, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Nordea Bank Abp 
Stock exchange release – Other information disclosed according to the rules of the Exchange
21 April 2026 at 15.00 EET

Nordea has now completed its share buy-back programme announced in December 2025. From 18 December 2025 to 20 April 2026, Nordea repurchased 31,042,146 of its own shares (FI4000297767) at an average price per share of EUR 16.10.

On 16 December 2025, Nordea announced a share buy-back of up to EUR 500m, based on the authorisation granted to the Board by the 2025 Annual General Meeting. The purpose of share buy-backs is to maintain an efficient capital structure and improve shareholder returns. Since the inception of the inaugural buy-back programme in October 2021, Nordea has distributed EUR 7.0bn to its shareholders through repurchasing around 655 million shares at an average price of EUR 10.67 per share.

Nordea repurchased the shares in public trading otherwise than in proportion to the shareholdings of its shareholders (directed repurchases). The repurchased shares were cancelled on a monthly basis.

The repurchases of this buy-back programme reduced the company's unrestricted equity by EUR 500m. Nordea now holds 8,935,424 treasury shares for capital optimisation purposes and 9,045,443 treasury shares for remuneration purposes.

Nordea will continue to use share buy-backs as a tool to distribute excess capital in line with its capital policy.
