Share buyback programmes

Share buyback programme

In line with our capital allocation framework, Moonpig Group has to date announced two share repurchase programmes.  The first programme of £25 million was conducted during H2 FY25. A second programme of up to £30 million has since been announced which is expected to be carried out in H1 FY26.

The Group has announced its intention to conduct up to £60 million of share buybacks in FY26, including the £30 million H1 FY26 programme which is currently ongoing. This is subject to the normal authority to repurchase shares being granted at the 2025 AGM. The Company’s policy is to undertake share buybacks only where they are EPS enhancing and funded from excess capital.

Capital allocation framework

To maintain an efficient capital structure, Moonpig Group’s target is to operate with net leverage of approximately 1.0x over the medium term, with flexibility to move beyond this as business needs require. We continue to prioritise organic investment to drive growth, including in technology and marketing. We will continue to selectively consider value-accretive M&A opportunities, maintaining a high threshold for strategic and financial returns.  We will always prioritise growth investment in the business, however our consistent strong Free Cash Flow means that we have the financial flexibility to consistently return incremental excess capital to shareholders by way of dividends and share buybacks. Our policy is that we will only conduct share buybacks when they use excess capital and are earnings enhancing.
