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 buy-back programme is when a company uses cash to repurchase its own shares from the market, reducing the number of shares available to investors. Like a store buying back its own gift cards to concentrate value, buy-backs can raise earnings per share and signal management’s confidence but also use cash that might have funded growth or dividends—details investors watch to judge impact on value and risk.

off-market buyback contract financial

"off-market limb will be effected in accordance with the Company’s general authority to repurchase shares off-market pursuant to the off-market buyback contract"

An off-market buyback contract is an agreement where a company agrees to repurchase its shares directly from a specific investor or group of investors, outside of the regular stock exchange or public trading. This allows the company to buy back shares privately, often at a negotiated price, which can influence the company's stock value and impact investor holdings. Such contracts matter to investors because they can affect the supply of shares and the company's financial strategy.

eu mar regulatory

"Article 5 of the 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.

market abuse (amendment) (eu exit) regulations (si 2019/310) regulatory

"including, The Market Abuse (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations (SI 2019/310)), from time to time"

A set of UK rules that update the law on insider trading, market manipulation and related disclosure duties to reflect the country’s departure from the EU. It is essentially an updated rulebook that keeps enforcement powers, reporting requirements and protections for honest investors working smoothly after the legal change; investors care because it clarifies what behaviour is illegal, how markets stay fair, and what companies must disclose.
