Zegona Communications ( (GB:ZEG) ) has issued an announcement.

Zegona Communications has continued to execute its previously announced share buyback programme, repurchasing 340,000 ordinary shares between 27 April and 1 May 2026 via Canaccord Genuity at a volume-weighted average price of about 1,736.8 pence. The company plans to cancel these shares, which will reduce the number of ordinary shares and voting rights in issue to 226,943,802, slightly increasing existing investors’ proportional ownership and potentially supporting earnings per share.

The reduction in share count underscores Zegona’s capital allocation strategy following its expansion through the acquisition of Vodafone Spain, signalling management’s confidence in the group’s valuation and prospects. The updated voting rights figure also provides an important reference point for shareholders and other market participants who must monitor and disclose changes in their holdings under UK transparency rules.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:ZEG) stock is a Buy with a £2300.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Zegona Communications stock, see the GB:ZEG Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on ZEG Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, ZEG is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by strong cash flow generation but constrained by high leverage and ongoing net losses. Technicals are supportive with a clear uptrend, though momentum indicators are stretched. Valuation impact is limited because P/E and dividend yield were not provided.
