Galliford Try ( (GB:GFRD) ) has shared an announcement.
Galliford Try Holdings has continued its share buyback programme, repurchasing 1,872 ordinary 50 pence shares on 9 February 2026 through broker Panmure Liberum at a volume-weighted average price of 531.98 pence. The company intends to cancel these shares, bringing total repurchases under the programme to 1,715,949 and reducing the number of shares in issue to 100,566,338, which now represents the total voting rights for disclosure calculations under U.K. transparency rules.
