Prudential announces completion of USD 2 billion share buyback programme

 

Prudential plc (the "Company") confirms that the third and final tranche of
its USD 2 billion share buyback programme for USD 500 million that was
announced and commenced on 1 July 2025 (the "Programme") has now completed.

Since the commencement of the Programme, the Company has repurchased
36,881,649  ordinary shares in aggregate at a volume weighted average price
of 1,012.7 pence per ordinary share for a total consideration of approximately
£373.5 million (USD 0.5 billion).

Together with the second tranche of USD 800 million of the share buyback
programme completed in the year, Prudential will have returned USD 1.3 billion
to shareholders in 2025. The share buyback programmes undertaken in 2025 have
resulted in a reduction of the Company's issued share capital by 120 million
shares which represents 4.5% of Company's issued share capital as of 1 January
2025 (2,657,521,888 shares).

As previously indicated, the Company intends to commence a further share
buyback programme in early 2026. A further announcement will be made in due
course.
