share buy-back programme financial

"These share purchases form part of the on- and off-market limbs of the Company's existing share buy-back programme..."

A share buy-back programme is when a company purchases its own shares from the market. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of remaining shares and signal confidence in the company's future. For investors, it can be a sign that the company believes its stock is undervalued and may lead to higher share prices.

on- and off-market financial

"These share purchases form part of the on- and off-market limbs of the Company's existing share buy-back programme..."

On-market transactions are trades carried out through a public exchange where buy and sell orders meet and prices are visible to everyone, like shopping at a supermarket with a tagged price. Off-market transactions happen outside the exchange, such as private transfers, negotiated block trades, or direct transfers between parties, more like buying from a neighbor by agreement. Investors care because on-market trades offer price transparency and immediate liquidity, while off-market deals can move ownership without showing up in public price discovery and can affect supply, demand, and disclosure timing.

EU MAR regulatory

"Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU dealing with buy-back programmes (“EU MAR”)..."

EU MAR is the European Union’s Market Abuse Regulation, a set of rules designed to keep financial markets fair by stopping insider trading and market manipulation and by requiring timely, accurate public disclosure of inside information. Think of it as traffic laws for trading: it sets who can share sensitive information, how it must be disclosed, and penalties for breaking the rules, which matters to investors because stronger rules reduce surprises, boost trust, and affect companies’ legal and reporting costs.

UK MAR regulatory

"and the EU MAR Delegated Regulation as “onshored” into UK law ... from time to time (“UK MAR”)..."

UK MAR is the UK Market Abuse Regulation, a set of laws designed to prevent insider trading, market manipulation and other dishonest practices in financial markets while setting rules for how companies must disclose important information. It matters to investors because it helps ensure a fair playing field and timely, reliable disclosures so price changes reflect real news rather than secret deals—think of it as the rulebook that keeps the market honest and predictable.
