Share Buyback Program

As published in the ad hoc announcement of May 28, 2025, the Ascom's Board of Directors approved a share buyback program on March 11, 2025, to repurchase up to a maximum of 3'000'000 registered shares with a par value of CHF 0.50 each for a maximum of CHF 15 million. The buyback trading commences on May 30, 2025, and is set to conclude by November 30, 2026.
The company intends to propose the cancellation of repurchased shares at future Annual General Meetings to reduce its capital. 

Trading on the second trading line of SIX Swiss Exchange Ltd.
For the share buyback program, a second trading line will be established for the shares on SIX Swiss Exchange Ltd. in accordance with the Swiss Reporting Standard. Only Ascom is permitted to assume the role of buyer on this second trading line (via Zürcher Kantonalbank as the bank mandated to conduct the share buyback program) and to purchase its own registered shares for the purpose of a capital reduction at a later date. Ordinary trading in the registered shares of Ascom under the current security no. 1 133 920 shall not be affected by this measure and shall continue as usual. Shareholders of Ascom wishing to sell their registered shares have the choice of either selling registered shares on the ordinary trading line or tendering them to the company on the second trading line for the purpose of the subsequent capital reduction. The conditions contained in TOB Circular No. 1 regarding buyback programs will be complied with.
