Positive
  • 167,020,777 ordinary shares repurchased since program start, showing active capital return
  • Total consideration of approximately US$2,192.9m demonstrates material scale of share repurchases
  • Issued ordinary share capital reduced to 17,251,807,611 following UK cancellations, with no treasury shares
Negative
  • Cancellation of shares repurchased on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is delayed, so total voting rights remain subject to change
  • Buy-back execution required cross-jurisdictional processes which create temporary timing differences in share count

Insights

HSBC is actively returning capital via a sizeable buy-back: US$2,192.9m repurchased to date.

Repurchasing 167,020,777 shares signals a deliberate capital return to shareholders and reduces the issued share base to 17,251,807,611 following UK cancellations, which can modestly increase residual ownership percentages per remaining share.

The filing explicitly notes timing differences: UK purchases are cancelled quickly while Hong Kong repurchases require additional time before cancellation, creating a short-term mismatch in the effective share count.

Buy-backs were executed across multiple exchanges: UK venues and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 3 October 2025.

The announcement lists transaction-level details for 434,114 UK trades and 1,490,000 Hong Kong trades on that date with reported price points in GBP and HKD, and provides a link to a full trade breakdown as required by the Market Abuse Regulation.

This on-Exchange execution approach aligns with the Companies Act 2006 definitions and the Hong Kong listing rules' definition of on-market buy-backs, ensuring regulatory conformity for the disclosed trades.
