Overview of share buyback
Sony Group resolved at its board meeting on May 8, 2026, in accordance with the Companies Act Article 459, Paragraph 1 and the articles of incorporation, to implement a share buyback through market purchases. This report announces that during the acquisition period from August 1, 2026 to August 31, 2026, 11,613,200 ordinary shares were acquired. Cumulatively, the total has reached 67,581,300 shares, totaling 237,352,140,305 yen.
Impact on capital policy and outlook
The acquisition cap was initially 230 million shares (3.89% of issued shares, with a cap of 50 billion yen), and the current acquisitions are part of that plan. Share buybacks are positioned as a means of shareholder returns, with a high likelihood of aiming to mitigate earnings per share dilution and enhance shareholder value. Attention will be on future acquisition schedules and any additional disclosures.
