All
repurchases on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited
("Hong Kong Stock Exchange")
are "off market" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006 but are
transactions which occur "on Exchange" for the purposes of the
Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited and which constitute an "on-market share
buy-back" for the purposes of the Codes on Takeovers and Mergers
and Share Buy-backs.
There
were no repurchases on the London Stock Exchange, Aquis Exchange,
Cboe Europe Limited (through the BXE and CXE order books) and/or
Turquoise ("UK
Venues").
In
accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU)
No 596/2014 (as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom
by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended),
a full breakdown of the individual trades made by BNP Paribas on
behalf of the Company is available via the link below.

*This
represents the Company's issued ordinary share capital and total
voting rights, following the cancellation of the shares which have
been repurchased on the UK Venues. There are no ordinary shares
held in treasury. This total voting rights figure may be used by
shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they
will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial
Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules.
Cancellation
of the shares repurchased today on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange
takes longer than those repurchased on the UK Venues and a further
announcement of total voting rights will be made once those shares
have been cancelled.
The
Company announces that, following the purchase of these shares, the
buy-back has concluded. Since the commencement of the buy-back, the
Company has repurchased for cancellation 31,735,502 ordinary shares
on the UK Venues at a volume weighted average price of
£15.1909 per ordinary share, and 16,921,600 ordinary shares on
the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at a volume weighted average price of
HK$161.2887 per ordinary share, for a total consideration of
approximately US$1bn.

announcement will also be available on HSBC's website at
