Volume weighted average price financial

"Volume weighted average price paid | Number of Ordinary Shares"

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.

American Depositary Shares financial

"Ordinary Shares underlying the American Depositary Shares, as further detailed"

American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.

share buy-back programme financial

"These share purchases form part of the Company's existing share buy-back programme"

A share buy-back programme is when a company purchases its own shares from the market. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of remaining shares and signal confidence in the company's future. For investors, it can be a sign that the company believes its stock is undervalued and may lead to higher share prices.

ISIN financial

"ISIN: | IE00BYTBXV33"

A 12-character International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) is a unique code that acts like a passport for a specific stock, bond or other tradable security so it can be identified worldwide. Investors and systems use it to ensure they are buying, selling and tracking the exact same instrument across exchanges and data feeds, which prevents costly mix-ups and makes portfolio reporting, settlement and regulatory checks simpler and more reliable.
