Jupiter Fund Management plc (the "Company" or "Jupiter")

 

Share Buyback Programme

 

As announced on 26 February 2026, as part of the Company's results for the
year ended 31 December 2025, Jupiter is pleased to announce the commencement
of a share buyback programme (the "2026 Buyback Programme") to purchase a
maximum aggregate market value equivalent of the lower of £30m or 3% of
issued share capital (excluding any associated costs and stamp duty), which
will be bought back in the form of ordinary shares of 2 pence each in the
capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").

 

The 2026 Buyback Programme will commence on 8 April 2026 and is expected to be
completed by no later than 8 October 2026. The sole purpose of the 2026
Buyback Programme is to reduce the Company's share capital. The Company
intends to cancel any Ordinary Shares purchased.

 

The Company has entered into a non-discretionary agreement with Deutsche Bank
AG, London Branch ("Deutsche Bank") to conduct the 2026 Buyback Programme on
its behalf and carry out on-market purchases of Ordinary Shares, acting as
riskless principal.

 

Deutsche Bank will make trading decisions in relation to the 2026 Buyback
Programme independently of the Company. During any closed periods, the Company
and its Directors will have no power to invoke any changes to the 2026 Buyback
Programme, and it will be executed at the sole discretion of Deutsche Bank.

 

Any purchases of Ordinary Shares under the 2026 Buyback Programme will be
carried out on the London Stock Exchange in accordance with (and subject to
the limits prescribed by) the Company's general authority to repurchase
Ordinary Shares granted by its shareholders at the annual general meeting on 8
May 2025 ("2025 Authority"). The maximum aggregate number of Ordinary Shares
which may be repurchased under the 2025 Authority is 16,314,181.

 

The 2026 Buyback Programme will also be effected within the parameters of the
Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU, as amended by the Market Abuse
(Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 ("UK MAR") and the Commission Delegated
Regulation 2016/1052/EU, as amended by Technical Standards (Market Abuse
Regulation) (EU Exit) Instrument 2019, which both form part of the law of the
United Kingdom by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, and in
accordance with the FCA Listing Rules.
