Common Stock Repurchase Program

In 2025, Berkshire’s common stock repurchase program was amended to permit Berkshire to repurchase its Class A and Class B common stock at any time that Berkshire’s Chief Executive Officer, after consultation with the Chairman of the Board, believes that the repurchase price is below Berkshire’s intrinsic value, conservatively determined. Prior to the amendment, the program permitted Warren Buffett, Berkshire’s Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, to repurchase Berkshire’s common stock under the same criteria. Repurchases may be in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. No Class A or Class B shares were repurchased in the fourth quarter of 2025.

• The program does not specify a maximum number of shares to be repurchased or obligate Berkshire to repurchase any specific dollar amount or number of Class A or Class B shares and there is no expiration date to the repurchase program. Berkshire will not repurchase its common stock if the repurchases reduce the value of Berkshire’s consolidated cash, cash equivalents and U.S. Treasury Bills holdings to less than $30 billion.
