					<description><![CDATA[<p>Heineken N.V. (HEINEKEN) [(EURONEXT: HEIA; OTCQX: HEINY)] announces the start of the first €750 million tranche of its €1.5 billion two-year share buyback programme as communicated on 12 February 2025. Heineken Holding N.V. (Heineken Holding), HEINEKEN&#8217;s majority shareholder, will participate pro rata to its shareholding in HEINEKEN&#8217;s share buyback programme daily, under an agreement between HEINEKEN and Heineken Holding. The price per HEINEKEN share payable to Heineken Holding will be the volume-weighted average price of the shares acquired by HEINEKEN on the market as part of the programme on the relevant day. HEINEKEN and Heineken Holding have entered into an arrangement to ensure Heineken Holding&#8217;s participation in HEINEKEN&#8217;s share buyback programme is implemented in conformity with Heineken Holding&#8217;s articles of association. The first tranche of the HEINEKEN share buyback programme is expected to be completed no later than 30 January 2026, or so much earlier as the amount dedicated to the first tranche has been spent, barring unforeseen circumstances. All shares that are repurchased under the programme will be cancelled. The share buyback programme may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time. The programme will be executed within the existing authority granted in the 25 April 2024 HEINEKEN Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and the authority to be granted by future general meetings of HEINEKEN. The programme will be executed in compliance with the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 (as amended, “Market Abuse Regulation”), including, concerning the repurchase of shares on the market, compliance with the safe harbour provisions for share buybacks. HEINEKEN will inform the market of the progress of the programme through regular press releases and updates on its website (www.heinekencompany.com/investors).

Beer volume grew organically by 1.6%, and net revenue (beia) was up 5.0% with strong operating profit (beia) growth of 8.3%. Notably, our beer volume expanded in all four regions, across both developed and emerging markets. Our EverGreen strategy continued to shape operations.

Marketing and selling investment increased by €0.3 billion, a double-digit organic increase, and we stepped up funding behind our digital and technology initiatives. Capital productivity focus helped deliver a strong free operating cash flow, exceeding €3 billion. Looking ahead, we are well-positioned to further increase our investment in marketing and selling and behind our EverGreen priorities in 2025.
