Octopus Apollo VCT cuts share count and updates total voting rights

Octopus Apollo VCT ( (GB:OAP3) ) has provided an update.

Octopus Apollo VCT plc has cancelled 19,620,096 ordinary shares of 0.1p each, repurchased on 13 April 2026 at a price of 46.9783p per share, as part of its capital management strategy. Following this transaction, the trust’s issued share capital and total voting rights stand at 1,179,121,931 ordinary shares, a new denominator that investors must now use when assessing and reporting any notifiable holdings under UK disclosure and transparency rules.

The reduction in share count slightly consolidates existing investors’ proportional ownership and may support the share price by signaling active balance-sheet management. The updated voting rights figure also has regulatory implications for shareholders, who must reference it when determining whether they need to notify changes in their stakes to the Financial Conduct Authority.
