HSBC Holdings plc reports on 8 August 2025 that it purchased and cancelled ordinary shares as part of the buy-back announced on 31 July 2025. On UK trading venues the company bought 2,435,999 shares at a volume-weighted average price of £9.3243 per share. On the Hong Kong Stock Exchange it bought 1,218,800 shares at a VWAP of HK$97.9050 per share.
Since the buy-back began, HSBC has repurchased 24,218,421 ordinary shares for approximately US$298.8m. After cancellation of the UK-repurchased shares the issued ordinary share capital is 17,387,459,366 shares with voting rights and there are no shares held in treasury. Cancellation of shares bought in Hong Kong takes longer and a further announcement will follow once those cancellations are completed.
HSBC continued its 31 Jul 2025 share-buyback programme. On 5 Aug 2025 the bank repurchased 4,239,468 ordinary shares (2,525,068 via UK venues at a VWAP of £9.2726 and 1,714,400 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at a VWAP of HK$96.2890). All UK trades were executed as on-market “market purchases”; Hong Kong trades are classed as on-market buy-backs under local rules.
Cumulative progress: since launch, 12,759,242 shares have been bought for c.US$155.9 m. Following cancellation of the UK-venue shares, issued share capital falls to 17,394,849,745 voting shares; none are held in treasury. Cancellation of the Hong Kong tranche is pending, after which a further total-voting-rights notice will be released.
Investor relevance: While the amount retired to date equals only ~0.07% of outstanding shares, ongoing repurchases signal surplus capital deployment and should provide modest EPS accretion and capital return to shareholders.
HSBC Holdings plc continued the buy-back it announced on 31 July 2025 by purchasing on 1 August 2025 a total of 4,919,774 ordinary shares for cancellation. Purchases were split between UK venues (2,494,974 shares, VWAP £9.1864, high £9.2800, low £9.0880) and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (2,424,800 shares, VWAP HK$95.5792, high HK$95.95, low HK$95.05). Aggregate consideration for the programme to date is approximately US$59.7 million.
HSBC also cancelled 18,336,400 shares previously awaiting cancellation. Following today’s repurchases and cancellations, issued ordinary share capital falls to 17,399,874,813 voting shares, with no shares held in treasury. Additional voting-rights disclosure will follow once Hong Kong–venue shares are cancelled.
The action modestly reduces the share count (≈0.15%) and underscores management’s intent to return excess capital to shareholders while maintaining regulatory compliance across both UK and Hong Kong markets.
HSBC Holdings plc has filed a Form 6-K to report its monthly Voting Rights and Capital position under UK FCA DTR 5.6.1.
On 30 July 2025 the bank had 17,420,706,187 ordinary shares of US$0.50 each in issue and no shares in treasury. Therefore, total voting rights equal 17,420,706,187. Investors should use this figure as the denominator when assessing disclosure thresholds required by UK Disclosure Guidance & Transparency Rules and Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Ordinance.
