OSB Group PLC Corporate Events
OSB Group PLC has launched a share repurchase programme of up to £100 million, starting on 6 March 2026 and expected to complete by 6 March 2027, as part of its policy to return excess capital to shareholders. The company has mandated Jefferies International Limited to execute the buybacks on a non-discretionary basis, with shares acquired to be sold on to OSB and cancelled, reducing its share capital under existing shareholder authority and in line with UK regulatory requirements.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:OSB) stock is a Buy with a £7.30 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on OSB Group PLC stock, see the GB:OSB Stock Forecast page.
OSB Group reported a resilient 2025 performance, with net loans rising 3.2% to £25.9bn and originations up 19% to £4.7bn as it continued to diversify away from buy-to-let, which now accounts for 68% of its loan book. Net interest income was £679.4m and NIM 228bps, broadly in line with guidance, though profit before tax fell 9% to £382.5m due to higher impairments, fair value losses and increased administrative expenses from its ongoing transformation programme.
The lender advanced its strategic transition by launching a new lending platform, unveiling its Rely brand for buy-to-let borrowers and migrating savers to a new savings platform, while maintaining strong capital with a CET1 ratio of 15.8%. The board lifted the total dividend 5% to 35.3p per share and announced a £100m share buyback, underscoring confidence in its capital position as it targets improved returns on tangible equity and refines guidance for steady loan growth, a circa 225bps NIM and disciplined cost growth in 2026.
