Details of Plus500 $70M Buyback Program

Following Plus500's successful completion of its previous share buyback program, the broker made news headlines in February 2023 with its announcement of another buyback program. True to its words, Plus500 announced the commencement of the new phase of its buyback program on its website on February 28th, 2023.

Plus500 has enjoyed tremendous benefits since the commencement of its first buyback program. According to the broker's website, its buyback program aims to "highlight the Board's continued confidence in the potential of the company and reflect its solid financial position."

According to the announcement on the broker's website, the buyback program is scheduled to be held from February 28th, 2023, to the last day of the year. While the company is subject to the demands of closed periods, share purchases are still permitted within a stipulated time frame during these periods.

The broker also revealed that during the buyback program, it might purchase about nine million shares on the open market. This projection is, however, dependent on market fluctuations, as share prices, trading volume, and other market variables can not be predetermined. 

As expected, Plus500 has reported that its buyback program will be regulated by the guidelines of Article 5(1) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) Act 2018 and the Commission Delegated Regulation Act. The program will also be supervised by the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) as well as the broker’s internal supervisor.
