An update from Rightmove ( (GB:RMV) ) is now available.

Rightmove plc has continued its longstanding capital return strategy by repurchasing 300,000 of its 0.1p ordinary shares on 18 December 2025 at a volume-weighted average price of 525.196p per share, with the shares to be cancelled. The transaction, executed via UBS AG London Branch, represents 0.0393% of the company’s prior voting rights and takes the total number of shares bought back since the launch of its share buy-back programme in December 2007 to 545,482,476, leaving 762,818,110 ordinary shares in issue (excluding treasury shares) and 10,753,494 shares held in treasury. The move further shrinks Rightmove’s free float and is likely to be seen as a continued effort to enhance earnings per share and return surplus capital to shareholders, underlining management’s confidence in the company’s cash generation and financial position.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:RMV) stock is a Buy with a £631.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Rightmove stock, see the GB:RMV Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:RMV Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:RMV is a Outperform.

Rightmove’s strong financial performance and positive earnings call sentiment are offset by bearish technical indicators and moderate valuation metrics. The ongoing share buyback program supports shareholder value, but market momentum remains a concern.
