In addition, Richemont announces a new programme to buy-back up to 10 million Richemont 'A' shares through the market over the next three years, representing 1.7 % of the capital and 1.0 % of the voting rights of Compagnie Financière Richemont SA.

Purchases will be effected through 'A' share purchases on SIX Swiss Exchange at prevailing market prices. The 'A' shares acquired will not be cancelled and no second trading line will be introduced as a consequence of the buy-back programme. The 'A' shares to be acquired will be held in treasury to hedge awards to executives under the Group's stock option plan.

Richemont currently holds 9.4 million 'A' shares in treasury as a consequence of previous buy-back programmes, which were also linked to the Group's stock option plan. Those shares represent 1.6 % of the capital and 0.9 % of the voting rights of the Company.
