Cancellation of shares in 2026
On 15 April
2026, the Annual
General Meeting of
shareholders approved the
cancellation of 63,776,550
shares,
each with
a nominal
value of
USD 0.10,
purchased under
the 2024
share repurchase
program. The
share capital
has been
reduced by
the nominal

The

contribution
reserve
and
the
voluntary
earnings
reserve
were
each
reduced
by
50%
of
the
total
capital
reduction amount
exceeding the
nominal value
upon cancellation
of the
repurchased shares,
i.e. each
by USD 997m
(CHF 806m). Amounts disclosed in Swiss
francs may differ from the
purchase price of the shares
due to the applied
method of converting US dollars to Swiss francs for presentation purposes.
