CVS Group plc ( (GB:CVSG) ) has provided an announcement.

CVS Group plc has continued its previously announced share buyback programme with the purchase of 50,329 ordinary shares on 19 January 2026 from Berenberg at prices between 1,366p and 1,376p, at a volume-weighted average price of 1,370.91p per share. The company intends to cancel these shares, reducing the total number of shares in issue to 70,310,987 and leaving no shares held in treasury, which in turn sets the new denominator for shareholder voting-rights calculations under UK disclosure rules; cumulatively, CVS has now repurchased 1,429,796 shares since the programme began, signalling an ongoing capital return strategy that modestly enhances earnings per share and may be interpreted as management confidence in the company’s valuation.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:CVSG) stock is a Hold with a £1465.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on CVS Group plc stock, see the GB:CVSG Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:CVSG Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:CVSG is a Neutral.

CVS Group plc’s overall stock score is driven by strong financial performance and positive earnings call highlights, including revenue growth and successful acquisitions. However, the high P/E ratio and low dividend yield suggest overvaluation, while technical indicators point to potential overbought conditions. Challenges in the UK market and past cyber incidents also weigh on the score.
