An update from Baltic Classifieds Group Plc ( (GB:BCG) ) is now available.

Baltic Classifieds Group plans to extend and fully utilise its existing authority to repurchase shares, having already bought back most of the 50,039,240 shares under a programme launched in 2022. The extension covers the remaining 5,166,481 shares under that programme plus the unused portion of its 2025 AGM authority, with a maximum additional outlay of €45 million.

The company expects to complete the maximum purchases allowed under its 2025 AGM authority by June 2026 and intends to seek an extra one-off authority at a forthcoming General Meeting to keep buying back stock until its next AGM in September. All repurchased shares will be cancelled, underscoring a strategy to reduce share capital and return cash to investors while operating within UK listing rules and regulatory constraints on buybacks.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:BCG) stock is a Sell with a £178.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Baltic Classifieds Group Plc stock, see the GB:BCG Stock Forecast page.
