RECKITT BENCKISER GROUP PLC

2024 SHARE BUYBACK PROGRAMME

COMPLETION OF FIRST TRANCHE AND COMMENCEMENT OF SECOND TRANCHE

Reckitt Benckiser Group plc ("Reckitt" or the "Company") confirms the successful completion of the first tranche of £250m (the "First Tranche") of its 2024 £1 billion share buyback programme (the "Programme") announced on 24 July 2024.

Under the First Tranche, between 26 July 2024 and 1 October 2024, the Company has purchased 5,655,355 ordinary shares of 10p each (the "Ordinary Shares") at an average price of £44.21, and which are now held in treasury.

Further to the announcement on 24 September 2024, the Company confirms that the second tranche of the Programme (the "Second Tranche") to return a further up to £250 million of capital to shareholders, will commence on 2 October 2024 and will end on or before 20 December 2024.  As previously announced, the purpose of the Second Tranche is to reduce the share capital of the Company. The Second Tranche will take place within the limitations of the authority granted to the Board by shareholders at the Company's Annual General Meeting on 2 May 2024. Pursuant to that authority, the maximum number of shares which remain available for purchase under the Second Tranche is 56,500,000.

As previously announced, Reckitt has entered into an agreement with Numis Securities Limited ("DN") under which it has instructed DN to manage the Second Tranche of the Programme.  DN will, acting as riskless principal, purchase Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of no greater than £250 million and will simultaneously sell such Ordinary Shares on to the Company. To the extent permitted by law, Ordinary Shares purchased under the Second Tranche of the Programme will be held in treasury.

This announcement does not constitute, or form part of, an offer or any solicitation of an offer for securities in any jurisdiction.
