Kingfisher plc has repurchased 186,719 of its ordinary shares on 23 December 2025 at a volume-weighted average price of £3.1017 per share, as part of its ongoing £300 million share buyback programme.

Spark’s Take on GB:KGF Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:KGF is a Outperform.

Kingfisher’s overall stock score is driven by strong technical momentum and positive corporate actions like share buybacks. While financial performance is stable, challenges in revenue growth and high valuation metrics slightly offset the positives. The strategic initiatives and improved guidance from the earnings call further support the stock’s outlook.
