Expanded buyback authorization to €5,000 million adds a new capital return element for shareholders.

Deutsche Telekom has expanded its equity buyback authorization to €5,000 million. The move reflects management's current view on capital allocation and adds a new capital return element for shareholders. The authorization comes alongside Q2 2026 results showing sales of €30,609 million and net income of €2,450 million, with first-half net income of €4,493 million. Earnings per share from continuing operations for the half year were €0.93, down from €1.12 a year earlier. The key question is how sustainably the company can fund both heavy network investment and larger buybacks while carrying a high level of debt.
