Character ( (GB:CCT) ) has provided an update.
The Character Group plc has continued to execute its share buyback programme, repurchasing 5,000 ordinary shares at 240 pence each on 10 March 2026 through Panmure Liberum. The shares have been cancelled, leaving the company with 17,529,149 shares in issue excluding 1,983,059 held in treasury, a figure shareholders can use to calculate voting rights and disclosure thresholds under FCA transparency rules.
