Reliance Worldwide Corp. ( (AU:RWC) ) just unveiled an update.

Reliance Worldwide Corporation has announced a further on-market share buy-back of A$120 million, representing a return of excess capital under its established capital management framework. This new program is in addition to the previously announced on-market buy-back of about US$15.3 million tied to the half-year distribution for the period ended 31 December 2025.

The enlarged buy-back will be implemented by varying the current on-market program and funded through a mix of cash reserves and available borrowing facilities. The board said the move reflects confidence in the company’s strategy and outlook, citing strong cash flow generation, reduced net debt and a leverage ratio now below its 1.5–2.5 times net debt-to-EBITDA target range, with expectations it will remain comfortably within that range after the buy-back.

RWC views the additional buy-back as an efficient way to return excess capital to shareholders while maintaining balance sheet flexibility. The company noted the varied on-market buy-back will comply with the 10/12 limit, and it retains the discretion to vary, suspend or terminate the program depending on future conditions and capital requirements.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:RWC) stock is a Hold with a A$3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Reliance Worldwide Corp. stock, see the AU:RWC Stock Forecast page.
