Kerry Group plc ( (GB:KYGA) ) has shared an announcement.
Kerry Group plc has continued its share buyback activity, repurchasing 30,187 A ordinary shares on Euronext Dublin on 2 March 2026 at prices between €74.00 and €74.30 per share, with a volume-weighted average price of €74.1488. The purchased shares will be cancelled, reducing the company’s share count to 160,253,146 ordinary shares in issue.
The transaction forms part of Kerry’s previously announced share buyback programme of up to €300 million to be executed by 31 December 2026, reflecting an ongoing capital management strategy aimed at returning cash to shareholders. By lowering the number of shares outstanding, the programme has the potential to enhance earnings per share and may support the stock’s valuation, signalling management’s confidence in the company’s financial position and long-term prospects.
