SAF-HOLLAND approves share buyback program with a volume of up to EUR 40 million

 

Bessenbach, November 11, 2025. The Management Board of SAF-HOLLAND SE ("SAF-HOLLAND"), one of the world's leading suppliers of trailer and truck components, today decided, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to execute a share buyback program with a total volume of up to EUR 40 million (excluding incidental acquisition costs), which is expected to be carried out between the end of November 2025 and December 31, 2026.

Against the backdrop of a robust liquidity situation and a solid financing structure with no outstanding maturities before March 2027, the Company plans to repurchase its own shares in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 (Market Abuse Regulation) in conjunction with the provisions of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.

Frank Lorenz-Dietz, Chief Financial Officer of SAF-HOLLAND SE, comments: "With the share buyback, we are underlining our confidence in the strength and future viability of SAF-HOLLAND. We consider the repurchase of our own shares to be an attractive investment in our company and a clear signal of our confidence in its long-term growth potential. At the same time, we are reaffirming our commitment to creating sustainable value for our shareholders."

The share buyback program is based on the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting of SAF-HOLLAND SE on June 10, 2021, according to which the Management Board, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, may acquire treasury shares representing up to 10 percent of the share capital until June 9, 2026. The Company plans to propose to the Annual General Meeting on May 21, 2026, that the authorization to acquire treasury shares be renewed.

SAF-HOLLAND reserves the right to suspend, resume, or terminate the share buyback program at any time, to the extent permitted by law. Further details on the technical implementation of the buyback will be published in due course in an announcement pursuant to Art. 5 (1) (a) of the Market Abuse Regulation and Art. 2 (1) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.
