Key Terms

treasury shares, average daily volume, trading venue, market abuse

4 terms

treasury shares financial

"other transactions or corporate actions involving the assignment or disposition of treasury shares."

Treasury shares are a company’s own stock that it has repurchased and keeps on its books instead of canceling or leaving in the hands of outside investors. Think of them like coupons a business puts back in a drawer: they don’t vote or receive dividends while held, but they can be reissued later for employee pay or fundraising. For investors this matters because buybacks change the number of shares that count toward earnings and ownership, can boost per‑share metrics, and use corporate cash that might otherwise go to growth or dividends.

average daily volume market

"not purchase on any trading day more than 25% of the average daily volume of Ferrovial shares"

Average daily volume is the typical number of shares or contracts of a security traded each day, calculated by averaging daily trading amounts over a recent period. It matters to investors because it indicates how easy it is to buy or sell without moving the price—like traffic on a road: high volume is a busy freeway that lets many cars pass smoothly, while low volume can make large orders cause big price changes and higher costs.

View in glossary

trading venue market

"highest current independent purchase bid on the trading venue where the purchase is carried out."

A trading venue is any organized place or system where buyers and sellers meet to swap stocks, bonds or other securities, like a physical market or an online exchange. It matters to investors because the venue determines how easily orders are filled, how quickly prices move, what rules and fees apply, and how transparent pricing is — much like choosing a busy bazaar versus a small shop affects price, speed and cost.

market abuse regulatory

"does not constitute a buyback program under Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 ... on market abuse"

Market abuse is illegal or unethical behavior that distorts the price or fairness of buying and selling financial assets, such as using secret information to trade, spreading false or misleading news, or creating fake buying and selling to give a false impression of demand. It matters to investors because it can cause unfair losses, unreliable prices and legal or reputational fallout; like cheating in a game or tampering with a scale, it destroys confidence that markets reflect true value.

AMSTERDAM, Dec. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ferrovial SE ("Ferrovial" or the "Company", Ticker: "FER") announces that it has resolved to terminate, with effect from today's closing of the U.S. stock exchanges, the ongoing buyback program announced to the market on 14 March 2025 and commenced on 2 June 2025 (the "Current Program"). In accordance with applicable regulations, Ferrovial will provide details of the final repurchases of Ferrovial shares under the Current Program, including the total number of shares acquired and the total amount invested under the Current Program.    

Ferrovial also announces, in accordance with the authorization granted by the Company's general meeting held on 24 April 2025 under agenda item 10, that it has resolved to implement a new repurchase program of its shares (the "New Repurchase Program").

The New Repurchase Program will have the following characteristics:

(i) Purpose: To repurchase Ferrovial shares in the context of actions related to future projects consistent with the strategic objectives the Company intends to pursue, for industrial projects, or other transactions or corporate actions involving the assignment or disposition of treasury shares.

(ii) Maximum investment: EUR 800 million. In no case may the number of shares to be acquired under the New Repurchase Program exceed 15 million Ferrovial shares, representing approximately 2.04% of Ferrovial's issued share capital as of the date of this announcement.

(iii) Price and volume conditions: The shares will be acquired in accordance with the relevant authorization of the Company's general meeting.

Moreover, although the New Repurchase Program does not constitute a buyback program under Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014, of the European Parliament and of the Council, of 16 April, on market abuse, and its developing regulations, on the European markets, Ferrovial will not purchase shares at a price exceeding the higher of the following amounts: (a) the price of the last independent trade; or (b) the amount corresponding to the highest current independent purchase bid on the trading venue where the purchase is carried out. As regards volume, the Ferrovial will not purchase on any trading day more than 25% of the average daily volume of Ferrovial shares traded on the trading venue on which the purchase is carried out. The average daily volume of the Company's shares for the purposes of the aforementioned calculation will be based on the average daily volume traded in the twenty (20) trading days preceding the date of every purchase.

On the U.S. markets, Ferrovial shares will be acquired in accordance with the applicable U.S. federal securities laws.

(iv) Duration: The New Repurchase Program has been authorized for the period from 15 December 2025 up to 15 October 2026 (both dates included), without prejudice to the Company's ability to extend the program's duration in view of the prevailing circumstances and in the interest of the Company and its stakeholders. Likewise, Ferrovial reserves the right to terminate the New Repurchase Program, in accordance with applicable law, if, prior to its term, it has reached the maximum investment amount or the maximum number of shares authorized, or if any other circumstance makes it advisable to do so.

(v) Disclosures: Any amendments to the New Repurchase Program, as well as the transactions carried out, will be disclosed to the competent authority of the most relevant market in terms of liquidity as referred to in Article 26(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 (or any other regulatory authority to which, as the case may be, must be disclosed).

Transactions under the New Repurchase Program will also be published on the Company's website.

(vi) Broker: Goldman Sachs has been engaged to carry out purchases under the New Repurchase Program. Goldman Sachs will make the purchases on the Company's behalf and make all trading decisions independently of Ferrovial.
