The repurchase may commence on May 25, 2026 and will be administered by Svenska Handelsbanken AB, which will make trading decisions independently of Bufab with regard to the time and price at which the repurchase takes place.
Purchases may comprise a maximum of 580,000 shares and may take place on one or several occasions, however, at the latest on June 12, 2026.

Payment for the shares will be made in cash. Reporting will take place through the stock exchange in accordance with applicable rules.
The total number of shares in Bufab is 190,552,665 and at the time of this press release the company holds 880,000 own shares.
