CRH Re-Issues Treasury Shares for Employee Incentive Plans

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

CRH plc has re-issued 8,897 Ordinary Shares from treasury to participants in its employee share schemes at prices of £25.55 and £31.04 per share, reflecting the ongoing use of equity-based incentives in its compensation structure. Following this transfer, the company now holds 35,634,977 Ordinary Shares in treasury, with 668,386,707 Ordinary Shares remaining in issue, resulting in a marginal adjustment to its capital structure but no material change to overall shareholder equity.

The transaction underscores CRH’s continued reliance on share-based awards to attract and retain employees in a competitive construction materials sector. While the volume of shares involved is relatively small compared with the company’s total shares in issue, it slightly reduces the pool of treasury shares available for future use in buybacks, employee schemes, or other corporate purposes.
