All repurchases on the London Stock Exchange, Cboe Europe Limited
(through the BXE and CXE order books) and/or Turquoise
("UK
Venues") are implemented as "on
Exchange" transactions (as such term is defined in the rules of the
London Stock Exchange) and as "market purchases" for the purposes
of the Companies Act 2006.
There were no repurchases on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong
Limited ("Hong Kong Stock
Exchange").
Since the commencement of the buy-back announced on 1 August 2024,
the Company has repurchased 143,976,504 ordinary shares for a
total consideration of approximately US$1,216.1m.
Following the cancellation of the shares repurchased on the UK
Venues, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist of
18,363,652,712 ordinary shares with voting rights. There are
no ordinary shares held in treasury. Cancellation of the shares
repurchased on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange takes longer than those
repurchased on the UK Venues and a further announcement of total
voting rights will be made once those shares have been
cancelled.
The above figure of 18,363,652,712 may
be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their
interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under
the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules.
In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of the Market Abuse Regulation
(EU) No 596/2014 (as it forms part of domestic law of the United
Kingdom by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018), a
full breakdown of the individual trades made by Merrill Lynch on
behalf of the Company is available via the link below.
