Aegon ( (AEG) ) has provided an announcement.

On January 12, 2026, Aegon announced it has begun a €227 million share buyback program, comprising €200 million of the €400 million repurchase unveiled on December 10, 2025, plus an additional €27 million to cover obligations under senior management share-based compensation plans. The buyback, expected to run through June 30, 2026, will be executed by a third party on the market within price limits linked to the volume-weighted average share price, and Aegon plans to cancel the shares associated with the €200 million capital return component, underscoring an ongoing focus on capital management and shareholder returns. Aegon’s largest shareholder, Vereniging Aegon, will participate pro rata in the program based on its roughly 18.4% of exercisable voting rights, corresponding to about €37 million of shares to be repurchased from the association at market-based prices, a structure that maintains proportional ownership while signaling confidence in the company’s balance sheet and supporting earnings per share over time.
