The Board of Directors of Vend Marketplaces ASA ("Vend" or the "Company") has
resolved to initiate a share buyback programme to be launched during the fourth
quarter of 2025. The Company intends to commence the programme following
completion of the announced share issue, which is being carried out in
connection with the combination of the Company's share classes.

The share buyback programme will comprise purchases for a total consideration of
up to NOK 2 billion.

Following the payout of the extraordinary cash dividend and the successful
tender offer to buy back shares in June, the new share buyback programme
underpins Vend's disciplined approach to capital allocation for sustainable
value creation. It also reflects our solid financial position and continued
confidence in Vend's long-term prospects," said Per Christian Mørland, CFO of
Vend.

The buyback will be conducted in accordance with the authorisation granted to
the Board of Directors by the Extraordinary General Meeting held on 22 October
2025, and will run from the launch date (to be announced separately) until no
later than 30 June 2026.

Vend will enter into a non-discretionary agreement with an independent third
party who will execute the share repurchases on behalf of the Company and make
all trading decisions independently of Vend.

The purpose of the share buyback is to reduce the share capital of the Company
and to acquire shares for use in Vend's employee share saving plan and long-term
incentive plans. Except for shares to be used in such employee-related
programmes, the Company intends to seek approval from the Annual General Meeting
for the cancellation of the remaining shares repurchased under the programme.

The buyback will be carried out in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 596/2014
(the Market Abuse Regulation) and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No
2016/1052 (the Safe Harbour Regulation).

Further details of the share buyback programme will be announced prior to its
launch.
