The latest update is out from Kerry Group plc ( (GB:KYGA) ).
Kerry Group plc has continued its ongoing share buyback programme with the repurchase of 20,121 A ordinary shares on Euronext Dublin on 12 February 2026, at prices ranging between €76.25 and €77.40 and a volume weighted average price of €76.8911. The purchased shares will be cancelled, reducing the number of ordinary shares in issue to 160,566,515 and advancing the company’s plan to buy back up to €300 million of stock by 27 February 2026, a move that tightens its capital base and may enhance earnings per share and shareholder value.
The buyback, conducted through intermediary J&E Davy, reflects Kerry’s active capital management strategy at a time when food and ingredients groups continue to prioritise returns to investors alongside investment in core operations. By shrinking its share count under the previously announced programme, the company signals confidence in its balance sheet and future cash generation, while potentially improving trading liquidity and supporting its market valuation.
