AIB Group ( (AIBRF) ) has provided an announcement.

AIB Group has continued execution of its €1.0 billion share buyback programme by repurchasing 500,000 ordinary shares on Euronext Dublin on 16 March 2026, at prices ranging from €8.82 to €9.00 and a volume-weighted average price of €8.9201. The shares, bought through Goodbody Stockbrokers UC, will be cancelled, reducing the company’s share count to 2,132,319,761 voting shares in issue and signaling ongoing capital return to shareholders.

The transaction, carried out under the framework of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, leaves AIB with no treasury shares and marginally enhances remaining shareholders’ proportional ownership and per-share metrics. The detailed trade data underline the scale and orderly execution of the buyback, which forms part of the bank’s broader capital management strategy amid its current financial and regulatory position.
