The latest update is out from Helios Towers ( (GB:HTWS) ).
Helios Towers has repurchased 104,202 ordinary shares on 19 February 2026 under its previously announced share buyback programme, paying a volume‑weighted average price of 197.3223 pence per share through Merrill Lynch International. The company plans to cancel all of the repurchased shares, which will reduce the total shares in issue to 1,040,599,083, slightly enhancing earnings per share and adjusting ownership percentages for existing shareholders.
The trades were executed across multiple venues including the London Stock Exchange, Chi‑X, BATS and Turquoise as part of an ongoing capital management strategy. By shrinking its share count rather than holding the stock in treasury, Helios Towers signals confidence in its valuation while providing a modest capital return and potentially improving share liquidity over time.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:HTWS) stock is a Hold with a £193.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Helios Towers stock, see the GB:HTWS Stock Forecast page.
