The ongoing share buy-back program by Shell plc is generally viewed positively by the market, as it reduces the number of outstanding shares, potentially increasing earnings per share and shareholder value. Morgan Stanley's independent management of the program ensures compliance with market regulations, maintaining market integrity.

Shell plc is actively engaged in an ongoing share buy-back program, purchasing its own shares for cancellation across various trading venues including the Aquis Stock Exchange, Australia, Ondo Global Markets, Euronext Amsterdam, SIX Digital Exchange, and Taipei Exchange. These transactions, occurring on dates such as April 7, April 9, and April 13, 2026, are part of a program announced on February 5, 2026. Morgan Stanley & Co. International Plc is independently managing the trading decisions for this program until May 1, 2026. The program adheres to Chapter 9 of the UK Listing Rules and Article 5 of the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU (EU MAR) and its 'onshored' UK equivalent (UK MAR), along with the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052. The purchases are made in both United Kingdom — Pound sterling and Europe, with varying prices and volume-weighted average prices across the different exchanges.
