Cellnex Advances Share Buyback, Repurchasing 8.2 Million Shares

The latest announcement is out from Cellnex Telecom SA ( (ES:CLNX) ).

Cellnex Telecom has reported the latest tranche of purchases under its ongoing share buyback programme, executing buy orders for 233,835 shares on the Madrid stock exchange between 2 and 6 February 2026 at a weighted average price of €26.88. The transactions, carried out by Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG, bring the total repurchased to 8,229,553 shares for €212.7 million, equivalent to around 43% of the maximum investment approved, underscoring the group’s continued use of buybacks as a capital allocation tool that can support earnings per share and signal management’s confidence in the company’s valuation.

The programme, first announced in November 2025, involves phased market purchases of ordinary shares identified by ISIN ES0105066007 on the Madrid exchange. By steadily increasing its treasury stock position, Cellnex is potentially enhancing shareholder returns while maintaining compliance with European market abuse and buyback regulations, a move that may influence its capital structure and could prove supportive for the stock in a volatile European telecoms infrastructure sector.

The most recent analyst rating on (ES:CLNX) stock is a Buy with a EUR43.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Cellnex Telecom SA stock, see the ES:CLNX Stock Forecast page.
