The company intends to cancel the common shares acquired through the share buyback program apart from a portion of up to €0.5 billion, which may be used to service share-based compensation and employee stock purchase plans. The shares will be purchased over a period ending December 31, 2024 on NYSE / Euronext Milan / Euronext Paris and other multilateral trading facilities.
The opportunity to initiate the buyback program stems from the Company’s significant cash flow generation and strong balance sheet. These factors enable the Company to ensure adequate liquidity to manage a wide variety of economic and market scenarios, while simultaneously facilitating attractive capital returns to shareholders, and to support the extension of the employee stock purchase plan to several countries.
