Anglo Eastern Plantations ( (GB:AEP) ) has provided an announcement.
AEP Plantations Plc has continued its previously announced share buyback programme, repurchasing 6,414 ordinary shares on 17 February 2026 at prices between 1,480p and 1,500p, with a volume‑weighted average of 1,497.45p per share. The shares bought back will be held in treasury, bringing total shares in issue to 39,976,272, of which 1,347,458 are held in treasury and excluded from voting rights, leaving 38,628,814 voting shares that form the new baseline for regulatory disclosure thresholds.
Since launching the buyback on 6 January 2026, AEP has acquired 152,018 shares in aggregate for treasury, signalling management’s ongoing capital management efforts and potentially supporting earnings per share and shareholder value. The updated voting share count is particularly relevant for investors and other stakeholders who must track their holdings against FCA disclosure and transparency requirements, as any changes in ownership will now be measured against the revised denominator.

Spark’s Take on GB:AEP Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:AEP is a Outperform.
Anglo Eastern Plantations scores well due to its strong financial performance and attractive valuation. The company’s robust balance sheet and effective cash flow management are significant strengths. The ongoing share buyback program further enhances shareholder value. However, the modest revenue growth and neutral technical indicators slightly temper the overall outlook.
