Lufax Announces Share Repurchase Plan by the Company and Senior Management

Lufax Holding Ltd (“Lufax” or the “Company”) (NYSE: LU), a leading technology-empowered personal financial services platform in China, today announced that its board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to US$300 million of its American depositary shares (“ADSs”) for the next six months.

The Company’s proposed repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The Company plans to fund repurchases from its existing cash balance.

The Company was also informed by its Chairman, Co-Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management of their intention to use their personal funds to purchase up to an aggregate of US$5 million worth of the Company’s ADSs during a six-month period following today, pursuant and subject to applicable laws and the Company's securities trading policy. The proposed senior management share purchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The senior management has agreed to be subject to lock-up restrictions for a period of at least six months with respect to the proposed purchased shares. The proposed senior management share purchase plan demonstrates the management’s confidence in the fundamental and long-term growth of the Company. After the purchase, the interests of the senior management will be even more closely aligned with those of the Company’s shareholders.
