Schouw & Co. Repurchases Shares in Week 32 of 2026 Buyback

Schouw & Co., the Danish industrial conglomerate, continued advancing its structured share buyback program during the 32nd week of 2026, part of a broader capital-return effort that began on January 2 of this year.

Investors tracking the remaining capacity under the DKK 240 million ceiling will find these periodic updates essential for gauging how much of the authorization has been utilized as the year progresses.
