ICG Enterprise Trust PLC GBP ( (GB:ICGT) ) has provided an update.

ICG Enterprise Trust has repurchased 15,000 of its own shares on 13 February 2026 at an average price of 1,481 pence per share, with the shares to be held in treasury. Following this transaction, the company holds 1,733,722 treasury shares and has 61,820,470 shares in issue excluding treasury, as it continues to use its existing authority to buy back up to 14.99% of its ordinary shares within net asset value constraints.

The ongoing buyback programme, executed through broker Deutsche Numis, signals active capital management aimed at improving capital efficiency and potentially enhancing net asset value per share for investors. The authority for repurchases remains in place until it is renewed or revoked at the 2026 AGM, giving the trust continued flexibility to respond to market conditions when deciding on further share buybacks.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:ICGT) stock is a Buy with a £1678.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ICG Enterprise Trust PLC GBP stock, see the GB:ICGT Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:ICGT Stock

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

The score is driven mainly by solid financial flexibility (low leverage) but tempered by materially inconsistent cash generation, including negative operating/free cash flow in 2025. Technical indicators point to weak near-term momentum, while valuation looks reasonable and corporate actions (buybacks below NAV plus liquidity-boosting realisations) provide additional support.
