Insights

TL;DR: HSBC has enacted a material buy-back, repurchasing 80.5m shares for ~US$1.02bn, reducing issued shares once cancellations complete.

HSBC's disclosure shows active on-exchange repurchases across London and Hong Kong as part of the buy-back announced 31 July 2025. The repurchases to date � 80,549,311 shares for approximately US$1,022.0m � are sizeable and will reduce the share count once all cancellations are processed, potentially increasing earnings per share metrics mechanically. The company provides venue-level trade details and confirms UK-cancelled shares have already been removed from issued capital, while Hong Kong-cancelled shares remain in process. This is a pro-shareholder capital return mechanism executed via market purchases rather than tender offers.

TL;DR: The buy-back follows required disclosure standards and updates the public share count; some cancellations remain pending in Hong Kong.

HSBC complied with Market Abuse Regulation disclosure and Listing Rules by publishing trade breakdowns and confirming changes to issued share capital for UK-cancelled stock. The announcement explicitly identifies the denominator shareholders should use for FCA notification purposes as 17,347,494,361 shares. The delay in cancelling Hong Kong-repurchase shares is noted and the company commits to a further announcement once those cancellations are completed, which is important for governance transparency and shareholder notification obligations.

All repurchases on the London Stock Exchange, Aquis Exchange, Cboe Europe Limited (through the BXE and CXE order books) and/or Turquoise ("UK Venues") are implemented as "on Exchange" transactions (as such term is defined in the rules of the London Stock Exchange) and as "market purchases" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006.

There are no ordinary shares held in treasury. Cancellation of the shares repurchased on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange takes longer than those repurchased on the UK Venues and a further announcement of total voting rights will be made once those shares have been cancelled.
 
The above figure of 17,347,494,361 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
