Buyback Conducted Under the Programme Announced on 22 June 2026 via Investec

The repurchases were carried out by Investec Bank plc on behalf of Fuller's, consistent with the share buyback programme the board announced on 22 June 2026. The programme operates under Article 5(1)(b) of UK-retained Market Abuse Regulation, which requires companies to publish detailed schedules of individual trades, including timestamps, volumes, prices, and transaction reference numbers. Fuller's has complied with this requirement in full. The company did not disclose the total size or remaining capacity of the buyback programme in this announcement. Investors monitoring the programme's progress may note the varying daily volumes, which suggest a degree of price-sensitive execution.
