Vienna, September 6, 2024 – Based on the authorization granted by the 155th Annual General Meeting on May 7, 2024 pursuant to sect. 65 para. 1 item (8) of the Stock Corporation Act, which was published via an electronic information dissemination system on May 7, 2024, as well as the electronic publication tool EVI on May 8, 2024, the Managing Board of Wienerberger AG today decided to buy back own ordinary bearer shares of the Wienerberger AG at their market price via the Vienna Stock Exchange between September 11, 2024 (inclusive) and presumably October 15, 2024 (inclusive). A total of up to 1,125,000 shares, corresponding to up to approx. 1.0% of the share capital, can be bought back at a minimum price of EUR 1.00 per share. The maximum price per share may not be more than 20% above the average, unweighted stock exchange closing price of the Wienerberger share on the previous ten stock exchange trading days prior to the respective share buyback. The maximum purchase price for shares under the share buyback program amounts to EUR 35,000,000. The shares bought back are to be used for all purposes in accordance with the authorization resolution granted by the Annual General Meeting on May 7, 2024. The buyback will have no impact on the admission of the shares of Wienerberger AG to stock exchange trading.

A credit institution will be mandated to execute the share buyback. The credit institution has to take its decision on the timing of the buyback of Wienerberger AG shares independently of Wienerberger AG and comply with the conditions for trading laid down in Article 3 of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 of 8 March 2016.
