INTESA SANPAOLO EXECUTED SECOND TRANCHE OF ORDINARY SHARE BUYBACK PROGRAMME FOR FREE ASSIGNMENT IN RELATION TO THE GROUP’S INCENTIVE PLANS
Turin - Milan, 8 September 2026 – Intesa Sanpaolo communicates that on 7 September 2026 the Bank executed the second tranche (following the one executed on 11 and 12 May 2026) of the ordinary share buyback programme to serve the assignment, free of charge, of Intesa Sanpaolo ordinary shares in relation to the following incentive plans of the Group:
(i) mainly, the 2025 Intesa Sanpaolo Group Incentive System, and, to a lesser extent, the incentive plans of certain subsidiaries (1) (together, the “2025 Plans”);
(ii) the completion of the implementation of the 2024 Intesa Sanpaolo Group Incentive Plans (2) (the “2024 Plans”);
(iii) the 2026-2029 Long-term Incentive Plan for Financial Advisors of the Fideuram – Intesa Sanpaolo Private Banking Group Networks (the “FA LTI Plan”);
(iv) on a residual basis, the potential payments agreed ahead of or upon early termination of the employment relationship (so-called Severance), if any.
The abovementioned Incentive Plans provide for the use of Intesa Sanpaolo ordinary shares in line with the Supervisory Provisions on remuneration and incentive policies and practices. Specifically, for the 2025 Plans, the 2024 Plans and for the potential Severance payments (if any), the use of shares is envisaged for Risk Takers who accrue a bonus exceeding the so-called “materiality threshold”, for the recipients of a “particularly high” amount and for those who, among Middle Managers or Professionals who are not Risk Takers, accrue a bonus exceeding both the so-called “materiality threshold” and 100% of the fixed remuneration; for the FA LTI Plan the use of shares is envisaged both for recipients who are identified as Risk Takers at the start of the plan, for whom the plan provides the assignment at the start of the plan of the right to accrue Intesa Sanpaolo shares provided that specific performance conditions are met; and for the remaining recipients if, at the end of the performance accrual period the bonus accrued constitutes a “particularly high” amount, or they are identified as Risk Takers, or they carry out an additional supervision and coordination assignment.
The purchase execution was in accordance with the terms approved at the Shareholders’ Meeting of Intesa Sanpaolo on 30 April 2026 and in relation to the requirement of the subsidiaries.
