CRH plc ( (CRH) ) has issued an announcement.
CRH plc, a global building materials company, has continued its share buyback activity in the United States, repurchasing 29,600 ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange at a volume-weighted average price of $124.93 per share. These shares were acquired via broker Santander US Capital Markets LLC and will be cancelled, reducing the number of ordinary shares in issue and reflecting the group’s ongoing capital return strategy.
The transaction is part of CRH’s previously announced plan to repurchase up to $300 million of ordinary shares by 17 February 2026, signalling management’s confidence in the company’s financial position and long-term prospects. Following settlement and cancellation, CRH will have 668,043,318 ordinary shares in issue, with a further 37,976,624 shares held in treasury without voting rights, subtly tightening the free float and potentially enhancing earnings per share for remaining investors.
