An update from Shell (UK) ( (GB:SHEL) ) is now available.

The purchases, executed in sterling and euros at volume-weighted average prices in the mid-30s in local currency terms, are aimed at reducing the company’s share count and returning excess capital to investors.
The transactions were carried out by Morgan Stanley & Co. International, which is operating the programme independently within pre-set parameters until early May 2026. The buy-back activity is being conducted under Shell’s existing shareholder authorities and in full compliance with UK and EU market abuse and listing rules, underscoring the company’s continued emphasis on regulated capital management initiatives.

Spark’s Take on SHEL Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, SHEL is a Outperform.
The score is driven primarily by solid underlying financial performance and supportive earnings-call guidance on cost reduction, capital discipline, and shareholder returns. Technicals are strong but look overheated, and while valuation is reasonable with a ~3% yield, weaker recent free-cash-flow momentum and operational risks (Chemicals, safety, and reserve-life decline) cap the upside.
