HSBC Holdings plc ("HSBC" or the "Company") announces that it has purchased
for cancellation the following number of its ordinary shares of US$0.50 from
Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc ("Morgan Stanley") as part of its
buy-back announced on 7 May 2024.

UK Venues

 Date of purchase:                                     15 May 2024
 Number of ordinary shares of US$0.50 each purchased:  3,332,279
 Highest price paid per share:                         £7.1030

All repurchases on the London Stock Exchange, Aquis Exchange, Cboe Europe
Limited (through the BXE and CXE order books) and/or Turquoise ("UK Venues")
are implemented as "on Exchange" transactions (as such term is defined in the
rules of the London Stock Exchange) and as "market purchases" for the purposes
of the Companies Act 2006.

There were no repurchases on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Since the commencement of the buy-back announced on 7 May 2024, the Company
has repurchased 36,369,661 ordinary shares for a total consideration of
approximately US$319.6m.

Following the cancellation of the shares repurchased on the UK Venues, the
Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist of
18,808,951,599 ordinary shares with voting rights. There are no ordinary
shares held in treasury. Cancellation of the shares repurchased on the Hong
Kong Stock Exchange takes longer than those repurchased on the UK Venues and a
further announcement of total voting rights will be made once those shares
have been cancelled.

The above figure of 18,808,951,599 may be used by shareholders as the
denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are
required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the
Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules.

In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No
596/2014 (as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom by virtue of
the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018), a full breakdown of the individual
trades made by Morgan Stanley on behalf of the Company is available via the
