Cairn Homes plc 
EUR45 Million Share Buyback Programme 
 
Dublin / London, 3 July 2024: Cairn Homes plc ("Cairn", "the Company" or "the Group") (Euronext Dublin: C5H / LSE: 
CRN), today announces following the release of its H1 2024 Trading Update earlier this morning, the commencement of a 
share buyback programme to repurchase ordinary shares of up to EUR45 million. 
 
The Company has entered into irrevocable, non-discretionary arrangements with Goodbody Stockbrokers UC ("Goodbody") and 
Numis Securities Limited (trading as Deutsche Numis) ("Deutsche Numis") to repurchase ordinary shares on the Company's 
behalf up to a maximum consideration of EUR45 million (the "Share Buyback Programme"). The EUR45 million capital amount 
represents EUR40 million of a new share buyback programme and the remaining EUR5 million of the previous share buyback 
programme announced in FY23. 
 
The Share Buyback Programme will commence 3 July 2024, and may continue until 30 June 2025 subject to market 
conditions, the ongoing capital requirements of the business and termination provisions customary for arrangements of 
this nature. The maximum number of ordinary shares to be repurchased under the Share Buyback Programme is (i) initially 
92,368,866 pursuant to the Company's general authority to repurchase ordinary shares approved by shareholders at the 
Company's AGM on 10 May 2024 (the "2024 Repurchase Authority") and (ii) subject to shareholder approval, thereafter 
shall be determined by reference to, and in accordance with, the general authority to repurchase ordinary shares at the 
Company's 2025 AGM (or at an earlier EGM, as applicable) (the "2025 Repurchase Authority") and these may be repurchased 
on either Euronext Dublin or the London Stock Exchange. The purpose of the Share Buyback Programme is to reduce the 
Company's share capital. It is intended that the shares repurchased will be cancelled. 
 
Goodbody and Deutsche Numis will make their trading decisions in relation to the Company's shares independently of, and 
uninfluenced by, the Company and in accordance with certain pre-set parameters. 
 
The Share Buyback Programme will be conducted (i) initially in accordance with the 2024 Authority, and the continuation 
of the Share Buyback Programme will be contingent on the approval of the shareholders of the 2025 Repurchase Authority 
and (ii) within the parameters prescribed by the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU, the Commission Delegated 
Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 (also as in force in the United 
Kingdom ("UK"), from time to time, including, where relevant, pursuant to the UK's Market Abuse (Amendment) (EU Exit) 
Regulations 2019 as well as the applicable laws and regulations of Euronext Dublin and the London Stock Exchange. 
 
The Share Buyback Programme may be supplemented by the purchase of ordinary shares by way of block trades in accordance 
with the Company's general authority to repurchase shares. The maximum consideration payable by the Company under the 
Share Buyback Programme will be reduced by the corresponding amount of capital returned through block trades. 
 
Details of any ordinary shares repurchased will be notified to a Regulatory Information Service by the Company 
following any repurchase. The Company confirms that currently it has no unpublished inside information.
