Softcat has completed its previously announced share buyback programme, repurchasing 3,352,161 ordinary shares for a total consideration of about £45 million, representing 1.67% of its issued share capital at the programme’s start. All repurchased shares have been cancelled, reducing the share count and potentially enhancing earnings per share and capital return metrics for investors.
Following the cancellation, Softcat’s issued share capital now consists of 196,840,451 ordinary shares, which also equals the total number of voting rights, as the company holds no treasury shares. This new share count provides the reference denominator for shareholders assessing disclosure thresholds under the FCA’s Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
