An update from CRH plc ( (CRH) ) is now available.
CRH plc has continued its latest share buyback effort, repurchasing 145,031 ordinary shares in the U.S. market on 12 March 2026 through Wells Fargo Securities at a volume-weighted average price of $100.4558 per share. The bought-back shares are being redeemed and cancelled, reducing the number of ordinary shares in issue to 669,154,192, while the group also holds 35,643,874 shares in treasury, equivalent to about 5.1% of its issued share capital.
The transactions form part of CRH’s previously announced program to repurchase up to $300 million of stock by 28 April 2026, underscoring ongoing capital-return efforts and balance-sheet management. By shrinking its free-float equity and maintaining a sizable treasury position with no voting rights, CRH is reinforcing earnings per share accretion for investors and signaling confidence in its valuation amid continued trading on U.S. venues including the NYSE and Nasdaq-linked platforms.
