(Información remitida por la empresa firmante)

STOCKHOLM, July 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Wave Power Global AB (publ) (Nasdaq: WAVE) ("Eco Wave Power" or the "Company"), a leading, publicly traded onshore wave energy company, is pleased to announce that its intention to set up a share repurchase program to repurchase American Depositary Shares corresponding to up to 10 percent of the total number of shares in the Company, which is the maximum amount permitted by the Swedish Law, was approved by Eco Wave Power's shareholders at the 2023 Annual General Meeting (the "AGM").

The AGM resolved on an authorization for the board of directors to resolve on purchases of the Company's own shares in accordance with the following main terms:

The authorization for the repurchase is conditional on necessary permits being obtained from the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (the "SFSA") in accordance with Chapter 19 of the Swedish Companies Act. Such permit is limited in time and conditional on the SFSA's assessment of the Nasdaq Capital Market as an equivalent of a regulated market as defined in the Swedish Securities Market Act.

"We would like to thank our shareholders for approving the Share Repurchase Program, and our legal advisors have already contacted SFSA to commence the regulatory approval process. We believe that our shares buyback program will allow our leadership to have a greater scope to act and the opportunity to improve the Company's capital structure, driving greater shareholder value and improving the investment value of our company," said Eco Wave Power's Founder and Chief Executive Officer Inna Braverman.

Repurchases will be made in accordance with the Swedish Companies Act and applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, and amount of any repurchase will be determined by the Company's management based on its evaluation of business, market, and economic conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations.
