FAQ
What does InterContinental Hotels Group PLC’s (IHG) March 2026 Form 6-K report?
The Form 6-K reports multiple share repurchases by InterContinental Hotels Group PLC in March 2026. The company bought ordinary shares on the London Stock Exchange via Goldman Sachs International and plans to cancel them, modestly reducing the number of shares in issue over the period.
Over what dates did IHG repurchase its own shares in March 2026?
IHG repurchased shares on several trading days between 06 and 19 March 2026. Individual exhibits detail purchases on 06, 09, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, and 19 March 2026, each announced the following business day within the Form 6-K filing package.
How many InterContinental Hotels Group PLC shares were in issue after the 19 March 2026 buyback?
After the 19 March 2026 repurchase, IHG had 150,524,341 ordinary shares in issue. This figure explicitly excludes 5,431,782 ordinary shares held in treasury, which remain issued but are not counted as part of the company’s active share capital in the market.
What price range did IHG pay for its March 2026 share repurchases?
Across the disclosed March 2026 transactions, IHG paid lowest and highest prices between about $125.40 and $133.80 per share. Each daily exhibit lists the aggregate number of ordinary shares purchased and the lowest, highest, and average price per share achieved on that trading day.
Who executed IHG’s March 2026 share repurchases on the market?
Goldman Sachs International executed the March 2026 share repurchases for IHG on the London Stock Exchange. The filing states each Purchase was carried out by Goldman Sachs International in accordance with shareholder authority granted at the 8 May 2025 Annual General Meeting.
What does IHG intend to do with the shares repurchased in March 2026?
For each March 2026 transaction, IHG states that it intends to cancel the repurchased ordinary shares. Cancelling these shares permanently removes them from circulation, leaving 150,524,341 ordinary shares in issue, excluding the 5,431,782 ordinary shares that the company holds in treasury.
