                            <![CDATA[Spain’s National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) has approved BBVA’s new offer for Banco Sabadell shareholders. The take-up period for Banco Sabadell shareholders began on September 8, 2025 and will end October 10, 2025. Banco Sabadell shareholders who take up the offer will receive one new BBVA share for every 4.8376 shares they tender. The new offer represents a 10 percent¹ increase over the previous offer, and is exceptionally attractive for Banco Sabadell shareholders, as it implies the highest share valuation in over a decade. BBVA will cover the costs associated with the exchange for all shareholders who accept the offer through BBVA branches or via the telephone number +34 800 080 032.]]>
