On 12 August 2022 the Company announced an increase of the share buy-back program up to DKK 84 billion (around USD 12 billion). The fourth phase, which started on 8 May 2023, was completed on 2 November 2023. The total market value of the shares acquired in the first four phases amounted to DKK 40 billion.

The fifth phase of the share buy-back program will run from 6 November 2023 up to 1 May 2024.

A maximum of 275,000 A shares and 1,100,000 B shares can be acquired in the fifth phase of the share buy-back program.

The share buy-back program will be executed under EU Commission Regulation No. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and Council of 16 April 2014 (MAR) and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 (the "Safe Harbour Regulation”), which ensures that the Company, its Board of Directors and its Executive Board, are protected against violation of insider legislation during the share buy-back period.
