Vestas launched a DKK1,120m (≈EUR150m) share buy-back programme on 5 November 2025 running through 17 December 2025; prior to the programme the company held 12,357,143 treasury shares (1.2%). During 4–10 December Vestas repurchased 980,000 shares at a weighted average price of DKK161.97 for DKK158.73m, bringing total repurchases under the programme to 5,945,000 shares at an average DKK155.30 for DKK923.28m. The programme therefore has roughly DKK197m of capacity remaining, which creates a defined near-term catalyst but a limited runway given the 17 December deadline. Purchase prices have risen versus earlier accumulated lots (previous accumulated avg DKK153.99 vs weekly avg DKK161.97 and a DKK167.14 trade on 10 December), indicating higher marginal buyback cost that could reduce the economic efficiency of further repurchases. Market signals show a mildly positive, low-impact reception (sentiment score 0.3), and the programme is being executed under MAR and the EU Safe Harbour Regulation, lowering execution/regulatory risk. Investors should treat ongoing weekly disclosures and the remaining capacity and timing as the primary near-term drivers of share-count reduction and EPS support, while monitoring rising purchase prices as a risk to buyback effectiveness.
