Osborne Group PLC repurchased 82,872 ordinary shares on the London Stock Exchange and other platforms, at a volume-weighted average price of 548.99p per share. The repurchased shares will be cancelled, and the company's total number of ordinary shares in issue will be 363,626. This purchase is part of the company's share buyback programme announced on March 13, 2025.
Haleon PLC has announced the commencement of a second tranche of its share buyback programme, aimed at reducing the company's share capital. The buyback programme, initially announced on 28 March 2025, is part of Haleon's broader strategy to enhance shareholder value.The second tranche will involve the repurchase of ordinary shares worth approximately £130 million, with an additional £150 million allocated to satisfy Haleon's existing employee share plans for 2026 and 2027. These shares will be held as treasury shares with no voting or dividend rights. The repurchased shares will be cancelled, reducing the total number of shares in issue.
The second tranche will commence immediately and end no later than 1 December 2025. Haleon has entered into an irrevocable agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Limited for the purchase of the shares, which will be carried out on the London Stock Exchange and/or CBOE Europe Limited. Citigroup will independently determine the timing of the purchases.
Haleon's share buyback programme is subject to certain parameters and regulatory requirements, including the 2025 Authority obtained at the company's Annual General Meeting on 28 May 2025, the UK Market Abuse Regulation, and the UK Listing Rules. The company has already completed the first tranche of the buyback programme, repurchasing 51,036,522 shares for an aggregate consideration of approximately £200 million between 28 March 2025 and 26 June 2025.
The share buyback programme is designed to reduce Haleon's share capital, potentially leading to an increase in earnings per share. The company's focus on shareholder value is a strategic move to enhance investor confidence and support long-term growth.
