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 AG’s London branch repurchasing 750,000 ordinary shares between 20 and 24 April 2026 at volume‑weighted average prices ranging from about £1.53 to £1.57. The company plans to cancel all of these shares, reducing the number of shares in issue to 526,781,635 and confirming that this figure now represents the total voting rights for regulatory disclosure purposes, signalling an ongoing effort to manage capital structure and enhance shareholder value.
The updated share count and voting rights position will guide investors in assessing their notifiable holdings under UK transparency rules, while Jupiter has committed to publishing weekly updates on buyback transactions on its website. By shrinking its equity base through cancellations rather than holding shares in treasury, the asset manager is tightening its free float, which can be supportive of earnings per share over time and may influence investor perception of its capital management discipline.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:JUP) stock is a Sell with a £1.55 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Jupiter Fund Management Plc stock, see the GB:JUP Stock Forecast page.
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.
