Relais Group Plc announced the completion of a share buyback program, initially decided by its Board of Directors on May 8, 2024, following authorization from the Annual General Meeting in April 2024. The buyback, conducted between May 8 and November 5, 2024, involved repurchasing 71,735 shares for a total of EUR 999,971.55 at an average price of EUR 13.94 per share. These transactions were carried out on Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd under Safe Harbor Rules. The aim was to optimize the company's capital structure by reducing its unrestricted equity. The repurchased shares will be canceled according to Finnish law. Post-buyback, Relais Group holds 71,785 own shares, about 0.40% of its total shares. Relais Group, a consolidator in the vehicle aftermarket in the Nordic and Baltic regions, reported net sales of EUR 284.3 million in 2023 and completed four acquisitions that year. The company employs around 1,000 people across six countries and is listed on Nasdaq Helsinki under the symbol RELAIS.
