Insights

Corporate Finance Analyst

Share buyback executed; modest in scale versus market cap.

The share repurchase of 281,843 shares was carried out as an on-market transaction on the London Stock Exchange at a VWAP of £10.3111. The company will cancel these shares, lowering the share count to 2,564,198,983, which slightly increases remaining shareholders' proportional holdings.

Cancellations are routine capital-management activity and depend on ongoing buyback authority and market conditions; monitor aggregate repurchases relative to announced program size and any commentary on buyback pace over the next quarters.

Corporate Governance Specialist

Transaction follows shareholder-authorized framework and disclosure rules.

The purchase was made under the authority granted at the 2025 AGM and executed via an arrangement with Merrill Lynch International, with disclosures aligned to LSE Listing Rules and the Hong Kong Code on Share Buy-Backs. A full trade breakdown is published under the Market Abuse Regulation link provided.

Investors can use the updated total voting rights figure 2,564,198,983 as the denominator for FCA disclosure thresholds; expect similar routine announcements while the buyback authority remains in effect.
