The share buyback program will be executed by a third party within the limits of relevant laws and regulations, as well as the authority granted at the company's annual general meetings [1].
The primary objective of the share buyback program is to cover existing and expected future obligations under ongoing share programs for employees and board members. ASM will provide weekly updates on the progress of the program, starting on May 5, 2025, and will publish this information on its website (www.asm.com) [1].
This announcement follows a trend seen in the semiconductor industry, where companies are increasingly using share buybacks to return capital to shareholders. For instance, Cadence Bank recently announced a share repurchase program of up to 10 million shares, demonstrating a similar commitment to enhancing shareholder value [2].
