Polar Capital Cancels 10,000 Shares in Ongoing Buyback Programme

Polar Capital Holdings ( (GB:POLR) ) has issued an update.

Polar Capital has continued its previously announced share buyback programme, repurchasing 10,000 ordinary shares at 630 pence each on 12 February 2026 through Deutsche Numis. The company will cancel these shares, reducing its issued ordinary share capital to 101,215,593 shares, which also becomes the new total voting rights figure used for regulatory disclosure thresholds.

The latest buyback transaction underscores Polar Capital’s ongoing capital management strategy aimed at returning value to shareholders and managing its share capital base. By shrinking the share count and confirming the updated voting rights, the move may marginally enhance earnings per share and provides clearer guidance for investors monitoring their disclosure obligations under UK transparency rules.
