Moonpig Group Plc ( (GB:MOON) ) just unveiled an update.

Moonpig Group plc has completed the second instalment of its FY26 share buyback programme, under which RBC Europe Limited repurchased more than 14.2 million shares for around £30 million, with the shares to be cancelled. With this final tranche, Moonpig has now returned approximately £60 million to shareholders through the full FY26 buyback, signalling confidence in its financial position and capital allocation strategy.

The company’s decision to complete the programme underscores its focus on shareholder returns and balance sheet optimisation, potentially boosting earnings per share by reducing the share count. The move may also reinforce Moonpig’s standing in the online cards and gifting sector, as it continues to invest in its technology-led, data-driven platform while returning surplus capital to investors.
