Sampo Completes EUR 350 Million Share Buyback Programme
Sampo plc has completed its EUR 350 million share buyback programme, which was launched on 6 May 2026. Repurchases began on 7 May 2026 and ended on 24 September 2026, during which Sampo repurchased 37,827,020 of its own A shares at an average price of EUR 9.24 per share. That figure corresponds to 1.42 per cent of all Sampo plc's shares based on the share count prior to the start of the programme, and the repurchases reduced the company's unrestricted equity by approximately EUR 350 million. The purpose of the buyback was to return excess capital to shareholders by reducing Sampo plc's capital, as the repurchased shares will be cancelled. Following the cancellation, the total number of Sampo shares will be 2,617,847,806, of which 2,616,847,806 will be A shares and 1,000,000 B shares.
