Nationwide Building Society announces proposed re-sale of Core Capital Deferred Shares
17 August 2026. Nationwide Building Society ("Nationwide" or the "Society") today announces the proposed re-sale of Core Capital Deferred Shares of £1 nominal amount each (ISIN: GB00BBQ33664) ("CCDS") previously repurchased by Nationwide pursuant to its open market repurchase facility (the "OMR Facility"), subject to market conditions (the "Re-sale Transaction").
On 20 February 2023, Nationwide announced the establishment of an OMR Facility under which it may, from time to time and in its sole discretion, seek to repurchase limited numbers of the CCDS pursuant to discrete open market repurchase exercises. The objective of the OMR Facility is to enable management of Nationwide's common equity tier 1 ("CET1") position prudently and flexibly over time in the interests of its members. Nationwide conducted two repurchase exercises under its OMR Facility in 2023, repurchasing a total of 1,433,155 CCDS. All such repurchased CCDS remain in issue and are held by Nationwide on its balance sheet.
Nationwide today announces that it has mandated BofA Securities, Citi, Jefferies and UBS Investment Bank as joint lead managers (together, the "Joint Lead Managers") in connection with the Re-sale Transaction with aggregate re-sale proceeds of up to £100 million, which is c.778,000 shares (based on a secondary mid-market price of £128.5 per share on 14 August 2026, being the last trading day prior to this announcement). This excludes any amount attributable to potential future distributions (periodic investment returns).
The Re-sale Transaction will be conducted by way of a bookbuilding process managed by the Joint Lead Managers. Allocations will be made in accordance with customary allocation processes and procedures and in accordance with applicable law and regulation. Nationwide, together with the Joint Lead Managers, will consider a range of factors in determining the allocations and evaluating the outcome of the transaction, including the level and nature of demand for the CCDS and the objective of supporting an orderly secondary market in the CCDS.
If the Re-sale Transaction completes, the total number of CCDS in issue will remain unchanged, and Nationwide's holding of CCDS on its balance sheet will reduce.
The Re-sale Transaction is expected to come to market in the coming days, subject to market conditions. If the Re-sale Transaction proceeds, Nationwide intends to announce the results of the Re-sale Transaction via the Regulatory News Service provided by the London Stock Exchange plc as soon as reasonably practicable following pricing, with settlement expected to follow on the seventh London business day after pricing.
The net proceeds of any re-sale of CCDS pursuant to the Re-sale Transaction will be used to strengthen the Society's regulatory capital base and for general business purposes consistent with the Society's principal purpose as a UK building society.
