Share Buyback Programme
Plus500, a global multi--asset fintech group operating
proprietary technology--based trading platforms, is pleased to
announce that it will today commence a new share buyback programme
to purchase up to an additional $60.2 million of the Company's
shares (the "Share Buyback Programme"), as previously announced on
17 August 2022, as part of the Company's interim results for the
six month period ended 30 June 2022.
Launch of the Share Buyback Programme follows the completion of
the Company's most recent share buyback programmes announced on 15
February 2022 and 13 April 2022.
The purpose of the Share Buyback Programme is to highlight
further the Board's continued confidence in the future prospects of
Plus500 and reflects its strong financial position. This confidence
is supported by the significant operational and financial momentum
achieved by Plus500 over recent years, as the Group continues to
make further progress on its strategic roadmap.
The maximum number of shares that may be repurchased under the
Share Buyback Programme is 9,959,828 shares, being the number of
shares the Company is authorised to purchase pursuant to the
authority granted by shareholders at the Company's 2022 Annual
General Meeting ("AGM") less the number of shares that have already
been repurchased pursuant to that authority.
Share purchases will take place in open market transactions and
may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share
price, trading volume and other factors. Liberum Capital Limited
("Liberum") will manage the Share Buyback Programme, which is an
irrevocable, non--discretionary share buyback programme to
repurchase the Company's shares on its behalf , and within certain
defined parameters . The Company and its Board members have no
power to invoke any changes to the share buyback programme and it
will be conducted at the sole discretion of Liberum within the
programme terms.
All ordinary shares repurchased by the Company under the Share
Buyback Programme shall be classified as shares held in treasury
(dormant shares). Such treasury shares are not entitled to
dividends and have no voting rights at the Company's general
meetings.
The Share Buyback Programme will run from the date of this
announcement until the announcement of the Company's preliminary
results for the twelve months ending 31 December 2022. Purchases
may continue during any closed period to which the Company is
subject during the above-mentioned period.
The Share Buyback Programme will be effected within the
parameters of Article 5(1) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No
596/2014 (which is part of UK law by virtue of the European Union
(Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the "2018 Act")) ("MAR") and the Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2016/1052 (which is part of UK law by
virtue of the 2018 Act) as well as the applicable laws and
regulations of the UK Financial Conduct Authority.
