THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN, SOUTH AFRICA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAWS OR REGULATIONS AROUNDTOWN SA INCREASES VOLUME OF SHARE BUY-BACK PROGRAMME BY EUR 500 MILLION 01 February 2022. Aroundtown SA ('the Company' or 'AT') announces that the Board of Directors of the Company has resolved to increase the volume of the current share buy-back programme announced on 25 March 2021 of which over 90% has been executed, by an additional EUR 500 million, up to a maximum of additional 100 million shares in the Company. The duration of the share buy-back programme has been extended until 31 December 2022. The decision to increase the volume of the share buy-back follows Aroundtown's successful disposal activity above book value. The opportunity to acquire its own shares at a significant discount to net asset value, fueled by disposals, enables the Company to capitalize on the wide gap between the share price and current transaction market levels and operational performance of Aroundtown. The Company's conservative financial policy and financial matrix will be sustained under the increased volume of the buy-back program.
