Embracer Group AB has announced it is initiating a share buyback program of up to SEK 750 million, starting 20 May 2026, pursuant to authorization from its 2025 annual general meeting. The company states the buybacks will be carried out in accordance with the EU Market Abuse Regulation and the Safe Harbor Regulation, with Nordea Bank Abp (Filial i Sverige) making the purchase decisions independently of Embracer. Embracer says the purpose of the program is to reduce share capital to optimize the company’s capital structure and to contribute to increased shareholder value, and that the board intends to propose cancellation of repurchased shares at the next AGM. The program is scheduled to run until no later than 31 March 2027 and will be executed on Nasdaq Stockholm under applicable rules and volume/price restrictions. Embracer also disclosed its current share count and the number of treasury shares held at the time of the announcement.
