KPN has completed its EUR250 million share buyback exercise, with shares falling due to mixed forecasts. The company's Q2 2025 earnings call is scheduled for July 23. KPN's Q1 2025 earnings showed a 3.8% YoY increase in group service revenue growth. The company also announced the start of a share buyback program in February 2025.
KPN, a leading Dutch telecommunications provider, has successfully completed its €250 million share buyback program. The company repurchased 1,533,000 ordinary shares between July 14 and 18, 2025, at an average price of €4.09 per share, totaling €6.3 million [1]. This repurchase is part of the larger €250 million buyback initiative initiated on February 25, 2025, demonstrating KPN's commitment to returning capital to shareholders [1].As of July 18, 2025, KPN has repurchased a total of 57,170,738 shares for a total consideration of €228.9 million [1]. The ongoing share buyback program reflects the company's strategy to enhance shareholder value and manage its capital structure.
Meanwhile, Perfect Corp (PERF), a Taiwanese company, is expected to report a 17.0% increase in revenue for the period ending June 30, 2025, with earnings of 2 cents per share [2]. The company is anticipated to post a rise in quarterly revenue, which could influence investor sentiment in the region.
KPN's Q2 2025 earnings call is scheduled for July 23. The company's Q1 2025 earnings showed a 3.8% year-over-year (YoY) increase in group service revenue growth, driven by strong performance across all segments [3]. The company also announced the start of its share buyback program in February 2025, aiming to boost shareholder returns and improve liquidity.
The mixed earnings forecasts and the ongoing share buyback program have led to a decrease in KPN's stock price. However, the company's solid Q2 performance and robust outlook for 2025 provide a positive outlook for investors. KPN's leading position in the Dutch fiber market and continued service revenue growth suggest a promising future for the company.
