An update from Vodafone ( (GB:VOD) ) is now available.
Vodafone Group has continued its share buyback activity, purchasing 2 million ordinary shares on 10 March 2026 from Goldman Sachs International under an existing repurchase programme. The stock was acquired on the London Stock Exchange at a volume-weighted average price of 108.40 pence, with the company stating it intends to hold the shares in treasury.
Following this transaction, Vodafone now holds roughly 1.76 billion shares in treasury and has about 23.12 billion ordinary shares in issue, excluding treasury stock. The move further consolidates the group’s capital management efforts, modestly reducing the free float and potentially enhancing earnings per share over time, while signalling continued board confidence in the company’s valuation.
