Helios Towers ( (GB:HTWS) ) just unveiled an update.

Helios Towers has repurchased 91,290 ordinary shares at prices between 193.0p and 196.8p, with a volume-weighted average price of 194.8294p, as part of its ongoing share buyback programme initiated in November 2025. The company plans to cancel these shares, reducing the total number of ordinary shares in issue to 1,039,886,283, a move that marginally enhances earnings per share and signals continued capital return to shareholders.

The buyback transactions were executed through Merrill Lynch International across multiple trading venues, including the London Stock Exchange, Chi-X, BATS Europe, and Turquoise, at closely clustered average prices. By shrinking its share count and confirming that no repurchased shares will be held in treasury, Helios Towers refines its capital structure and provides a new reference denominator for investors monitoring disclosure thresholds under regulatory transparency rules.

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.
