In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 as it applies in the UK (the Market Abuse Regulation), the table below contains detailed information of the individual trades made by Citigroup Global Markets Limited on behalf of Bellway as part of the Buyback Programme.

Programme update

Bellway announces that the first £75 million tranche of the Buyback Programme, as announced on 14 October 2025, has now completed.

 

The second tranche of the Buyback Programme will commence on 7 April 2026 (the 'Second Tranche') and Bellway has entered into a new arrangement for this Second Tranche with Deutsche Bank AG. Share purchases will be made in accordance with the arrangement and made independently of and uninfluenced by Bellway. As announced on 14 October 2025, the purpose of the Buyback Programme is to reduce the Group's share capital.  As such, all ordinary shares repurchased by Bellway pursuant to the Second Tranche will be cancelled.

 

The Second Tranche is expected to be undertaken in the period commencing 7 April 2026 and end no later than 31 October 2026. The maximum aggregate consideration for purchases in respect of the Second Tranche is £75 million (excluding stamp duty and expenses).

 

Share purchases under the Buyback Programme will take place in open market transactions and may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share price and trading volumes.  The Second Tranche will be effected under the authority granted by shareholders at the Group's 2025 Annual General Meeting held on 27 November 2025 and, accordingly, the maximum number of shares that may be repurchased under the Second Tranche is 11,899,426 Ordinary Shares.

 

The Buyback Programme will be conducted within the parameters prescribed by the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 (also as in force in the UK, from time to time, including, where relevant, pursuant to the UK's European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and the Market Abuse (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019) as well as applicable laws and the regulations of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (including Chapter 9 of the Listing Rules).  The Group intends to make use of the FCA's updated notification deadline under UK Listing Rule 9.6.6R, which permits post-trade notifications of purchases of own shares to be made no later than the end of the seventh daily market session following the date of execution. Accordingly, the Group expects to move from daily to weekly market notifications in respect of shares purchased under the Buyback Programme.

 

Bellway will make further announcements in due course following the buyback of shares.  Note there is no guarantee that the Buyback Programme will be implemented in full.
