CRH Continues $300 Million Share Buyback With New U.S. Repurchases

CRH plc ( (CRH) ) has issued an update.

CRH plc has repurchased 100 of its ordinary shares in the U.S. market on 13 April 2026 through broker Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, at a volume-weighted average price of $115.95 per share, with all acquired shares to be cancelled. The transaction forms part of CRH’s previously announced plan to buy back up to $300 million of shares by 28 April 2026, leaving 668,200,712 shares in issue and 35,634,977 shares held in treasury, a move that marginally reduces the free float and underscores ongoing capital returns to shareholders.

Following this latest tranche of the buyback, CRH’s treasury shares now represent just over 5% of its issued share capital, and these shares carry no voting rights. The continued execution of the repurchase program signals management’s confidence in the company’s valuation and capital position, and may provide incremental support to earnings per share and shareholder value through a modest reduction in the company’s outstanding equity base.
