Transaction in own shares

Ryanair Holdings plc (the "Company") has previously announced an intention to return capital to shareholders by way of a share buy-back programme to be conducted pursuant to irrevocable arrangements with its brokers, Citigroup Global Markets Limited ("Citi") and J&E Davy ("Davy"). The Company today announces that on 27 June, 2016 it purchased for cancellation a total of 260,000 ordinary shares of nominal value €0.006 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").

The Ordinary Shares repurchased have been repurchased at an average price of €10.687 per Ordinary Share (high of €11.55 and low of €10.53).

In respect of this programme, which will operate until not later than 31 October 2016, Citi and Davy will make trading decisions in relation to Ryanair's Ordinary Shares and American Depositary Receipts repurchased under the buy-back programme independently of, and uninfluenced by, Ryanair.  Any such acquisitions will be effected within certain pre-set parameters, and in accordance with both Ryanair's general authority to repurchase Ordinary Shares and Ordinary Shares underlying American Depositary Receipts, and Chapter 9 of the Listing Rules of the Irish Stock Exchange.

Following the cancellation of the Ordinary Shares repurchased the Company will have    1,254,473,074 Ordinary Shares in issue. To the extent that further Ordinary Shares (including Ordinary Shares underlying American Depositary Receipts) are repurchased under the programme, these will also be cancelled.
