Quilter ( (GB:QLT) ) has shared an announcement.

Quilter has continued its share buyback programme, repurchasing ordinary shares on both the London Stock Exchange and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange between 9 and 13 March 2026. The company intends to cancel all of these shares, reducing its share count and potentially enhancing earnings per share and capital efficiency for investors.

On the London market, Quilter has bought more than 3.0 million shares since 4 March at a total cost exceeding £5.6 million, while on the Johannesburg exchange it has acquired over 1.0 million shares for about ZAR 43.4 million. Following the latest transactions, Quilter has nearly 1.4 billion ordinary shares in issue and holds no treasury shares, underlining its commitment to returning capital to shareholders via cancellations rather than holding repurchased stock.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:QLT) stock is a Buy with a £207.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Quilter stock, see the GB:QLT Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on QLT Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, QLT is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by solid fundamentals (cash generation and low leverage) and a strong, confident earnings-call outlook with robust flow momentum and shareholder-return commitments. Offsetting factors are weaker near-term technicals and only moderate valuation support, alongside lingering profitability volatility and a guided step-up in costs.
