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

CRH plc ( (CRH) ) has provided an announcement.

CRH plc has repurchased 8,702 of its ordinary shares in the U.S. on 24 March 2026 through Wells Fargo Securities, with the redeemed shares to be cancelled as part of its ongoing share buyback programme of up to $300 million running to late April 2026. Following settlement and cancellation, CRH will have 668,746,111 ordinary shares in issue and will hold 35,643,874 shares in treasury, equivalent to 5.06% of its issued share capital, modestly increasing the proportionate ownership of remaining shareholders and signalling continued capital return to investors.

The company disclosed that the trades were executed across multiple U.S. trading venues at a volume-weighted average price of $103.2254 per share, in line with regulatory requirements under the UK Market Abuse Regulation and listing rules. By steadily reducing its free float through targeted buybacks while maintaining treasury shares without voting rights, CRH continues to fine-tune its capital structure and support its stock in U.S. markets following its listing shift.
