Syensqo SA, a prominent player in the science and technology sector, is currently executing its Share Buyback Program, which was officially announced on September 30, 2024. This initiative, authorized under Article 7:215 of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations, has a total budget of up to 300 million. This strategic move aims to enhance shareholder value and reflect the company's commitment to its investors.

The current phase of the buyback program, referred to as the third tranche, commenced on February 27, 2025, and is set to continue until June 27, 2025, at the latest. This tranche allows for the repurchase of shares totaling up to 50 million, which is part of the broader 300 million program. It is important to note that the company intends to cancel all shares acquired through this particular tranche, signaling a focus on reducing the total number of shares in circulation to increase value for existing shareholders.

In a recent update, Syensqo announced that it successfully repurchased 60,539 shares between April 14, 2025, and April 18, 2025. The details of these transactions are as follows:
