Plus500 (LON:PLUS) announced the commencement of a new share buyback program on Monday, authorizing the repurchase of up to $90.0 million of its shares.

The move follows the completion of an existing $110.0 million buyback program, initially announced on February 18, 2025.

The Share Buyback Programme is part of the $165.0m of shareholder returns announced in the Company's H1 2025 Interim Results on 11 August 2025.

The buyback reflects the company's robust financial position and cash-generative business model. The Board's ongoing confidence in the Group's ability to deliver strong shareholder returns over the medium-term is also a factor.

The maximum number of shares the Company is entitled to repurchase under the Share Buyback Programme is up to 5,868,129 shares. The company has stated that all repurchased shares will be held as treasury shares, which will not be entitled to dividends or voting rights.

The announcement aligns with Plus500’s established capital allocation strategy. The company has consistently demonstrated its ability to generate substantial cash flow, allowing it to invest in growth opportunities while simultaneously rewarding shareholders.

Plus500 shares are down around 0.4% so far on Monday.

In its recent results, the Group announced new shareholder returns totalling $165.0m, comprising this new $90.0m share buyback and total dividends of $75.0m. The operational and financial momentum achieved in recent years, including during H1 2025, reinforces the company’s financial strength.
