Commencement of Share Buyback Programme

Further to the announcement of 6 November 2025, J Sainsbury plc is pleased to
announce the commencement of a share buyback programme of up to £92 million,
to be completed by the end of this financial year, 28 February 2026 (the
"Programme").

 

The Programme will commence on 7 November 2025. The sole purpose of the
Programme is to reduce the Company's share capital. The Company intends to
cancel the repurchased ordinary shares.

 

The Company has entered into non-discretionary instructions with BNP Paribas
to conduct the Programme on its behalf and to make trading decisions under the
Programme independently of the Company.

 

The Programme will take place within the limitations of the authority granted
to the Board of the Company by its annual general meeting, held on 3 July
2025, pursuant to which the maximum number of shares to be bought back by the
Company is 233,769,100.
