Polar Capital Cancels 25,000 Shares in Ongoing Buyback Programme

The latest announcement is out from Polar Capital Holdings ( (GB:POLR) ).

Polar Capital Holdings has continued to execute its previously announced share buyback programme, repurchasing 25,000 ordinary shares on 24 March 2026 through Deutsche Bank’s Deutsche Numis unit at prices between 595p and 610p, with a volume-weighted average of 602.3276p. The company will cancel the repurchased shares, reducing its issued share capital to 100,656,884 ordinary shares and voting rights, a move that marginally enhances existing shareholders’ ownership stakes and may signal ongoing capital management discipline.

The updated total voting rights figure provides a new reference point for investors when calculating disclosure thresholds under the FCA’s transparency rules. This incremental buyback activity underscores Polar Capital’s continued use of share repurchases as part of its broader capital allocation strategy in the competitive asset management sector.
