Shell plc executed a major share buyback on 18 March 2026, purchasing 1,618,100 shares across six trading venues, including LSE, Chi-X, and XAMS, as part of its ongoing repurchase program announced 5 February 2026. The largest transaction occurred on XAMS (495,026 shares at €40.05 average), while LSE saw 542,957 shares bought at £34.62 average, reflecting cross-market execution strategies in both GBP and EUR currencies. Morgan Stanley & Co. International Plc is managing the buyback independently until 1 May 2026, operating within pre-set parameters under Shell’s on- and off-market repurchase authorities approved by shareholders. The program complies with UK Listing Rules, EU MAR, and UK MAR regulations, including post-Brexit financial laws like the Financial Services Act 2021, ensuring transparency and legal adherence in share cancellations. All purchases aim to reduce Shell’s issued share capital, aligning with its capital allocation strategy and regulatory requirements for market abuse prevention.
