ttb has completed its 10-day second share buyback program, with share repurchase totaling THB 6,283 million or 71% of the budget. The Bank is considering the next buyback round, reflecting its commitment to achieve the total buyback program of THB 21,000 million.

Bangkok, 6 February 2026 As previously announced, ttb has accelerated its second share buyback program ahead of the original plan and increased the budget to THB 8,900 million, using a General Offer method at a final price of THB 2.03 per share. After the buyback period from 22 January 2026 to 4 February 2026, the Bank reported the completion of the program with share repurchases totaling THB 6,283 million, representing 71% of the allocated budget.

Mr. Piti Tantakasem, CEO of ttb, mentioned “Apart from supporting customers in achieving sustainable debt solutions, the Bank continues to focus on optimizing shareholder returns through capital management as one of its 2026 priorities. Key initiatives include a 3 year share repurchase program (2025–2027) with a total budget of THB 21,000 million, aimed at enhancing shareholder returns together with maintaining an attractive dividend payment.

The share repurchase program serves as a mechanism for the Bank to return excess capital to shareholders who seek liquidity and capital gains. At the same time, it enhances value for existing shareholders, as share repurchases reduce the number of outstanding shares in the stock market which typically lead to increases in earnings per share (EPS) and return on equity (ROE). Moreover, it helps support share price to better reflect the fair value.

In terms of progress update of ttb’s share repurchase program, the Bank has completed two rounds of share buybacks, with a total value of THB 11,386 million. This represents 5,783 million shares repurchased, or 5.9% of total outstanding shares. Based on 2025 net profit of THB 20,639 million, the two completed buyback programs are estimated to improve 2025 EPS and ROE by approximately 5% and 40 basis points, respectively, compared to a scenario without a share repurchase program. This reflects the benefits from effective capital management through the optimization of excess liquidity.

After the completion of the share buybacks, the Bank remains well capitalized, with a capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of 19%. The strong capital position reflects the Bank’s capacity to support future business expansion and to optimize shareholder returns through various initiatives, including dividend payments.

As for dividend payment, the Bank has increased its dividend payout ratio from a pre-merger level of 30–35% to the current level of 60% (interim dividend payout for 2025). This translates into a dividend yield of approximately 6–7%, positioning ttb as one of the banks delivering relatively high returns to existing shareholders compared with industry.

The Bank remains committed to achieving its total share repurchase budget of THB 21,000 million, with approximately THB 9,600 million of remaining budget. Moreover, as the Bank was able to complete the 2nd round of share repurchase ahead of the original plan, this provides flexibility in terms of timeline and allows subsequent programs to be implemented sooner if appropriate. Nevertheless, the Bank will deliberately consider the structure and execution method of each share repurchase, taking into account in capital market conditions. This is to maximize benefits for all groups of shareholders.”
