AIB Group plc has continued execution of its €1.0 billion share buyback programme, repurchasing 2,225,000 ordinary shares on Euronext Dublin between 23 and 27 March 2026 through Goodbody Stockbrokers UC. The shares, bought at volume-weighted average prices ranging from about €8.57 to €8.96, will be cancelled as part of the capital return to shareholders.

Following the cancellation of these repurchased shares, AIB’s total shares in issue will fall to 2,127,786,046, with no shares held in treasury, slightly increasing remaining investors’ proportional ownership and earnings per share. The move underscores the bank’s confidence in its capital position and its commitment to shareholder returns, while marginally tightening the free float in the market.
