ASML disclosed that it repurchased 105,800 shares during the period February 9‑13 2026, spending a total of €126,811,025. The weighted‑average purchase price ranged from €1,192.93 to €1,207.88 per share.
The buyback is part of a new program launched on January 28 2026 that allows ASML to repurchase up to €12 billion of its own shares through December 31 2028, underscoring the company’s commitment to returning capital to shareholders while preserving a strong balance sheet.
Prior to this update, ASML had repurchased 1.9 million shares for €1.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025, demonstrating a consistent pattern of capital return activity.
The program signals management’s confidence in ASML’s long‑term valuation and its ability to generate excess cash, even as share prices remain high. By continuing to buy back shares, ASML reinforces its strategy of optimizing capital allocation and delivering value to investors.
The buyback occurs against a backdrop of robust demand for advanced lithography systems, driven by the semiconductor industry’s expansion into AI and high‑performance computing. ASML’s dominant market position and continued investment in next‑generation technology support the company’s outlook for sustained growth and shareholder returns.
