Jupiter Fund Management Plc ( (GB:JUP) ) has provided an announcement.

Jupiter Fund Management plc has continued executing its 2026 share buyback programme, with Deutsche Bank’s London branch repurchasing a series of ordinary shares between 5 and 8 May 2026. The company bought just under 460,000 shares over the period at volume-weighted average prices ranging from about £1.51 to £1.60 per share, as part of a capital management strategy.

The repurchased shares will be cancelled, reducing the total number of shares in issue to 525,609,372 and leaving no shares held in treasury. This reduction in share capital is expected to slightly enhance earnings per share and consolidate voting power for remaining shareholders, while Jupiter continues to disclose weekly buyback activity on its website to maintain transparency for the market.

Spark’s Take on JUP Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, JUP is a Outperform.

The score is led by improved financial performance supported by a strong, low-leverage balance sheet, plus an earnings-call outlook showing better flows and investment performance with active capital returns. Valuation is supportive due to the low P/E. These positives are moderated by historically volatile earnings/cash flows, guidance implying fee margin pressure and lumpy performance fees, and only mixed near-term technical signals.
