The company said, “For the 2025 financial year, the Board of Directors plans to propose a dividend to UBS (UBS) Group AG shareholders of $1.10 per share. Subject to approval at the Annual General Meeting, scheduled for 15 April 2026, the dividend will be paid on 23 April 2026 to shareholders of record on 22 April 2026. The ex-dividend date will be 21 April 2026 on the SIX Swiss Exchange and 22 April 2026 on the New York Stock Exchange. We plan to accrue for a mid-teens percent increase in dividend per share in 2026. In the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed our planned share repurchases of $3bn. We intend to repurchase $3bn of shares in 2026 with the aim to do more. The amount of additional buybacks is subject to further clarity around the future regulatory regime in Switzerland, our financial performance, and maintaining a CET1 capital ratio of ~14%. Beyond 2026, we intend to continue to pursue a progressive dividend complemented by share repurchases that will be calibrated based on our financial results, our capital ratio and the final outcome and timing of the implementation of the new regulatory regime in Switzerland.”
