CCEP · Coca-Cola Europacific Partners PLC

This 6-K discloses the completion of the first tranche of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners PLC’s EUR 1 billion share repurchase programme, announced on 17 February 2026. The Company acquired 5,873,426 ordinary shares for €499,992,581 — nearly half the total authorization — over five trading days from 20 to 24 April 2026. Purchases occurred on both US Trading Venues (including Nasdaq) and London Trading Venues (including LSE, CBOE BXE/CXE, and Aquis), with all shares sourced through Goldman Sachs entities and designated for cancellation. This action directly reduces the Company’s issued share capital and signals capital return discipline aligned with its stated financial policy. While no forward-looking guidance or additional tranches are detailed beyond the statement that 'any further tranches... will be announced in due course', the execution pace and scale confirm operational readiness and commitment to the programme. The disclosure complies with UK Market Abuse Regulation (Article 5(1)(b)) and FCA transparency rules, reinforcing regulatory adherence in cross-border equity transactions.
