An update from AJ BELL PLC ( (GB:AJB) ) is now available.

AJ Bell plc has continued to execute its previously announced share buyback programme of up to £50m, repurchasing 40,000 ordinary shares on 21 January 2026 through Jefferies International Limited at prices between 439.20p and 449.60p, with a volume-weighted average price of 443.89p. The company will cancel these shares rather than hold them in treasury, reducing the total number of ordinary shares in issue to 400,477,384, which in turn lowers the share count and may enhance earnings per share while updating the total voting rights figure used by shareholders to assess their notifiable interests under UK disclosure rules.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:AJB) stock is a Hold with a £520.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on AJ BELL PLC stock, see the GB:AJB Stock Forecast page.
