Bavarian Nordic Buys Back Shares Under DKK 250M Program
Bavarian Nordic is repurchasing shares worth up to DKK 250 million between Sept. 1 and Oct. 30, 2026, under EU market-abuse safe harbor rules.
Bavarian Nordic A/S disclosed transactions carried out under a share buy-back program launched September 1, 2026, the Danish biotechnology company announced from Copenhagen on October 5, 2026. The program authorizes the repurchase of company shares for a total value of up to DKK 250 million before the program closes on October 30, 2026.
The buy-back is being executed in compliance with Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014, the European Parliament's market abuse regulation, as well as Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052. Together, those two measures form the framework commonly referred to as the Safe Harbour Regulation, which governs how publicly listed companies may conduct share repurchases without triggering market manipulation concerns.

Bavarian Nordic trades on the Nasdaq Copenhagen exchange under the ticker BAVA. The company has not disclosed the specific number of shares acquired in the current reporting period or the per-share prices paid. Further transaction-level disclosures are expected as the program progresses toward its October 30 deadline.
