Shell buys back over 2.6 million shares as part of its ongoing repurchase program.

On April 17, 2026, Shell plc repurchased a total of approximately 2.68 million shares across multiple trading venues including the London Stock Exchange and European exchanges. These shares are being bought back for cancellation under Shell's existing share buy-back program announced in February 2026, managed independently by Morgan Stanley. The buy-back is conducted within regulatory frameworks to reduce the number of shares outstanding, potentially increasing shareholder value. This move signals Shell's commitment to returning capital to shareholders and optimizing its capital structure.
