PureTech Health PLC (the "Company") announces that it has purchased the following number of its ordinary shares of one pence each through Jefferies International Limited ("Jefferies"). This completes the Share Buyback Programme of up to $50 million, details of which were announced on 9 May 2022. Between 9 May 2022 and 7 February 2024, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 20,182,863 ordinary shares under the Share Buyback Programme, which represents approximately 7% of the Company's issued share capital at the time the programme commenced.
