Thomson Reuters ( (TSE:TRI) ) has issued an announcement.
On February 25, 2026, Thomson Reuters announced plans to expand its existing normal course issuer bid, allowing repurchases of up to 16 million common shares, or about 3.55% of shares outstanding, for a new total authorization of US$600 million through August 18, 2026. The company has already bought back more than 6 million shares for about US$1.0 billion under the current bid, and may conduct additional purchases on the TSX, Nasdaq and other permitted venues, including through an automatic share purchase plan to continue buybacks during blackout periods.
The company also unveiled a planned US$605 million return of capital funded from proceeds of its May 2024 London Stock Exchange Group share sales, to be delivered via a special cash distribution of roughly US$1.36 per participating share followed by a proportional share consolidation. Shareholders will vote on the return of capital and consolidation at a special meeting on April 28, 2026, with the board and major shareholder Woodbridge in favor, and, if shareholder and court approvals are obtained, Thomson Reuters expects to complete the transactions in early May, with tax treatment designed to be generally favorable for Canadian residents and opt-out flexibility for certain taxable non-Canadian investors.

Spark’s Take on TSE:TRI Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:TRI is a Neutral.
The score is supported primarily by strong financial performance and constructive guidance/capital-return commitments from the latest earnings call. This is meaningfully offset by very weak technical conditions (deeply negative trend and momentum). Valuation is moderately demanding on P/E, with the dividend providing partial support.
