Beiersdorf (ISIN DE0005200000) has expanded the first tranche of its 2026/2027 share buyback program to up to EUR 400 million and extended the purchase period to December 29, 2026. The October 28, 2026 announcement was published through Deutsche Börse. The remaining capacity corresponds to up to 2,909,604 shares, or 1.22 percent of share capital, based on the EUR 80.34 Xetra closing price on October 27, 2026.
EUR 400 million tranche
The decision doubles the first tranche from the EUR 200 million limit announced on August 20, 2026. The company had originally set the tranche at EUR 100 million on May 6, 2026, while the wider 2026/2027 program allows repurchases totaling up to EUR 750 million, according to the Deutsche Börse release.
The program is intended to support share cancellations, convertible or warrant-linked debt obligations and employee share programs. Purchases are executed by a commissioned credit institution, which independently decides when transactions take place.
What changes by December 29
The chronology is clear. On May 6, 2026, Beiersdorf launched the program with a EUR 100 million first tranche. On August 20, 2026, it extended that tranche to EUR 200 million. On October 28, 2026, it increased the ceiling again to EUR 400 million, with the same release setting the new December 29 deadline.
The authorization permits treasury-share purchases of up to 10 percent of share capital until April 16, 2030. The latest extension therefore increases the available first-tranche capacity, but it does not state that all 2,909,604 shares will be acquired.
