share buyback programme financial

"Such purchases form part of the Company's existing share buyback programmes"

A share buyback programme is when a company uses its cash to purchase its own shares from the market, reducing the number of shares available to other investors; imagine a bakery buying back coupons so fewer are circulating. It matters because cutting the share count can boost earnings per share and increase each remaining investor’s ownership stake, and it also signals management’s view of the stock while using cash that could have been spent on other priorities.

volume weighted average price financial

"Volume weighted average price paid per share (pence)"

The volume weighted average price (VWAP) is a way to measure the average price of a security, such as a stock, over a specific period, taking into account how many units were traded at each price. It’s similar to calculating the average cost of items bought when some are more frequently purchased than others. Investors use VWAP to assess whether a security is being bought or sold at a fair price during trading.

Market Abuse Regulation regulatory

"In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (the Market Abuse Regulation)"

Market abuse regulation consists of laws and rules designed to prevent dishonest or manipulative practices in financial markets. It aims to ensure fair and transparent trading, so investors can trust that markets operate honestly, much like rules that keep a game fair. By reducing unfair advantages, it helps protect investor confidence and promotes healthy, efficient markets.

Regulatory News Service regulatory

"Regulatory News Service Announcement, 18 September 2026 re: Transaction in Own Shares"

A regulatory news service is an official channel where companies publish required disclosures and material information so regulators, investors and the public receive the same announcements at the same time. Think of it as a public bulletin board that ensures important facts—like earnings, leadership changes, or regulatory filings—are shared promptly and fairly; investors use these notices to reassess value, risk and trading decisions.
