The latest announcement is out from AIB Group ( (AIBRF) ).

AIB Group has continued execution of its previously announced €1.0 billion share buyback, repurchasing 2,050,000 ordinary shares on Euronext Dublin between 7 and 10 April 2026 through Goodbody Stockbrokers. The shares, bought at volume-weighted average prices ranging from about €9.04 to €9.52, will be cancelled as part of the capital management initiative.

Following cancellation of these repurchased shares, AIB’s total ordinary shares in issue will fall to 2,122,805,159, all carrying one vote each, with no shares held in treasury. The reduction in share count supports earnings per share accretion and underscores the bank’s ongoing efforts to optimise its capital structure and return surplus capital to shareholders.
