Item 8.01    Other Events.

Accelerated Share Repurchase Agreement

As part of its previously announced share repurchase plans, on June 8, 2026, Signet Jewelers Limited (the “Company”) entered into a master confirmation and supplemental confirmation (collectively, the “ASR Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) to repurchase $50 million of the Company’s common shares (the “Common Shares”).

Under the ASR Agreement, the Company will make a payment of $50 million to Goldman Sachs on June 8, 2026 and expects to receive an initial delivery of approximately 480,000 Common Shares on June 8, 2026. The total number of Common Shares that the Company will repurchase under the ASR Agreement will generally be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of the Common Shares during the calculation period under the ASR Agreement, subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events pursuant to the terms of the ASR Agreement.

Upon final settlement of the ASR Agreement, Goldman Sachs may be required to deliver additional Common Shares to the Company, or, under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to deliver Common Shares or make a cash payment to Goldman Sachs. Final settlement of the ASR Agreement is expected to occur between June 12, 2026 and July 17, 2026, subject to postponement, adjustment, cancellation or early termination upon the occurrence of certain events as provided in the ASR Agreement.

Upon completion of the ASR, the Company will have approximately $355 million in share repurchase authorization remaining under its 2017 Share Repurchase Program, subject to any further repurchases that are made during the term of the ASR Agreement, and additional repurchases may be made through additional accelerated share repurchase programs, open market purchases, through 10b5-1 plans, through block trades or otherwise for programmatic and opportunistic repurchases. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock prices, applicable legal requirements and other factors.
