Leonardo has disclosed the purchase of 880,000 of its ordinary shares on the Euronext Milan market between 29 June and 1 July 2026, as part of the share buyback programme authorised at the company’s May shareholder meeting.

BUYBACK COMPLETED AT WEIGHTED AVERAGE OF €46.87 PER SHARE

 

Leonardo S.p.A. has published its scheduled disclosure relating to share repurchase activity conducted under the buyback programme authorised at the company’s Annual General Meeting held on 7 May 2026, with the programme formally initiated on 19 May 2026. In the three-day period from 29 June to 1 July 2026, Leonardo purchased 880,000 ordinary shares on the Euronext Milan market at a weighted average price of €46.867 per share, net of commissions, for a total consideration of €41,242,994.80.

 

The transactions were executed across three sessions: 420,000 shares were acquired on 29 June at a weighted average of €46.0543 per share (€19,342,793.40); 220,000 shares on 30 June at €46.6317 per share (€10,258,963.00); and 240,000 shares on 1 July at €48.5052 per share (€11,641,238.40).
