The treasury is the department or area within a government or organization responsible for managing its money, finances, and financial strategies. It handles tasks like collecting revenue, paying bills, and planning for future financial needs, much like a household manages its budget. For investors, understanding the treasury is important because it influences interest rates, government spending, and overall economic stability.

The company’s buybacks were executed at prices between $138.30 and $147.90 per share. Each exhibit lists the lowest, highest and average price paid on that day, showing how the trading range varied across the repurchase period.

How did these buybacks affect IHG’s shares in issue?

Following the 17 April 2026 transaction, IHG had 150,171,125 ordinary shares in issue, excluding treasury shares. After the 30 April purchase, this figure had decreased to 149,979,095, reflecting the cumulative effect of the shares the company intends to cancel.

Goldman Sachs International executed the purchases on the London Stock Exchange. The transactions were carried out under instructions issued by InterContinental Hotels Group PLC on 17 February 2026, acting under authority granted at the company’s 8 May 2025 Annual General Meeting.

What will IHG do with the repurchased ordinary shares?
