(the Bank) an authorisation to buy back own shares of an amount up to ISK 15 billion market value. The authorisation is subject to the condition that if the Bank chooses to pay dividends in excess of its dividend policy, the total amount of the authorisation shall be reduced by the amount of such dividend payment
At the close of business on 3 February 2026 the Bank held 126,293,195 own shares, representing 6.72% of issued shares in the Bank.
The Bank will use the authorisation to set up a formal share repurchase program or for the purpose of offering shareholders generally to sell their shares to the Bank e.g., through auction where equal treatment of shareholders is ensured. The Bank will announce the timing and execution of the repurchase of own shares under the aforementioned authorisation once a decision to that effect has been made.
It should be noted that the ongoing share repurchase by the Bank, announced on 7 July 2025, is carried out based on the previous authorisation from the FSA granted in 2025.
