Insights

Prudential executed a routine on-market buyback of 279,010 shares with minimal impact on overall capital structure.

Prudential plc repurchased 279,010 ordinary shares on 17 November 2025 at an average price of £10.7306, within a low–high range of £10.6900 to £10.7950. The transaction was carried out via Merrill Lynch International on the London Stock Exchange under a previously approved buyback arrangement.

The Company plans to cancel all repurchased shares, after which shares in issue and voting rights will stand at 2,557,811,025. Relative to this large base, the cancelled amount is very small, so the effect on ownership percentages and earnings per share is limited based on the provided figures.

The activity is described as an on-exchange transaction under London Stock Exchange Listing Rules and an on-market purchase for Hong Kong regulatory purposes. Future disclosures in similar buyback updates, if any, would indicate whether this level of repurchase activity continues or changes over time.
