Repurchase Programme
Moonpig
Group plc (the "Company") announces that further to the
announcement on 16 October 2024, it
is today commencing a share buyback programme (the "Share Buyback
Programme") to repurchase up to £25m of its ordinary shares (the
"Shares").
The Share
Buyback Programme will run from the date of this announcement until
either 30 April 2025 or until
notified by the Company. The Company's policy with respect to share
buybacks is that it will only conduct share buybacks when they use
excess capital and they are earnings enhancing.
The Share
Buyback Programme will operate under the authority granted at the
Company's 2024 Annual General Meeting, by which the Company was
authorised to repurchase up to a maximum amount of 34,362,148
Shares (the "Share Buyback Authority"). The purpose of the Share
Buyback Programme is to return excess capital to shareholders and
reduce the capital of the Company. Shares bought back under the
Share Buyback Programme are intended to be cancelled.
In order
to implement the Share Buyback Programme, J.P. Morgan Securities
plc ("JPMS plc") shall purchase ordinary shares as riskless
principal (and not as agent of the Company) for the subsequent sale
on to, and purchase by, the Company. JPMS plc will make its trading
decisions in relation to the ordinary shares independently of, and
uninfluenced by, the Company, and in accordance with certain
pre-set parameters agreed with the Company. Any purchases of
Ordinary Shares under the Share Buyback Programme will be carried
out on the London Stock Exchange and in accordance with (and
subject to the limits prescribed by) the Share Buyback Authority,
Chapter 9 of the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules,
Article 5(1) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (as it
forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union
(Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended (the "Withdrawal Act")) and the
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2016/1052 (as it forms part
of domestic law by virtue of the Withdrawal Act).
