An update from Ninety One ( (GB:N91) ) is now available.

Ninety One plc has repurchased 130,000 of its ordinary shares on the London Stock Exchange on 9 April 2026 via broker Citigroup Global Markets, paying an average price of 213.52 pence per share. The shares will be cancelled as part of the firm’s ongoing buyback programme launched in March 2025, a move that signals continued capital return to shareholders and may support earnings per share and share price over time.

The latest transaction underscores Ninety One’s use of balance-sheet flexibility to manage its capital structure amid its dual listing in London and Johannesburg. For investors, the cancellation of shares marginally reduces the free float while indicating management’s confidence in the business and its cash-generative profile, though the company stressed the announcement is not a solicitation to buy or sell securities.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:N91) stock is a Hold with a £250.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ninety One stock, see the GB:N91 Stock Forecast page.
