repurchase program financial
"Within the framework of the repurchase program announced on June 9, 2026"
A repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the open market. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's future. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued and can be a sign of financial strength.

Investors buy ordinary shares to potentially earn dividends and benefit from the company's growth over time.
