\n Zaandam, the Netherlands, January 4, 2021<\/em> \u2013 Ahold Delhaize today commences the \u20ac1 billion share buyback program announced on November 4, 2020 and expects to complete the program before the end of 2021.
Maintaining a balanced approach between funding growth in key channels and returning excess liquidity to shareholders is part of Ahold Delhaize\u2019s financial framework to support its Leading Together strategy. The purpose of the program is to reduce the capital of Ahold Delhaize, by cancelling all or part of the common shares acquired through the program.
The program will be executed by intermediaries allowing the execution of share repurchases in the open market during open and closed periods. The program will be executed within the limits of relevant laws and regulations, the existing authority granted at Ahold Delhaize\u2019s 2020 annual general meeting of shareholders on April 8, 2020 and the authority (if granted) by the annual general meeting on April 14, 2021.
Ahold Delhaize will provide regular updates on the progress of the program by means of press releases.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
