RNS Number : 7169T HSBC Holdings PLC 01 August 2025
HSBC HOLDINGS PLC
1 August 2025
Transaction in own shares
HSBC Holdings plc ("HSBC" or the "Company") announces that it has purchased
for cancellation the following number of its ordinary shares of US$0.50 from
Merrill Lynch International ("Merrill Lynch") as part of its buy-back
announced on 31 July 2025.
UK Venues
Date of purchase: 1 August 2025
Number of ordinary shares of US$0.50 each purchased: 2,494,974
Highest price paid per share: £9.2800
Lowest price paid per share: £9.0880
Volume weighted average price paid per share: £9.1864
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.
Hong Kong Stock Exchange
Date of purchase: 1 August 2025
Number of ordinary shares of US$0.50 each purchased: 2,424,800
Highest price paid per share: HK$95.9500
Lowest price paid per share: HK$95.0500
Volume weighted average price paid per share: HK$95.5792
All repurchases on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("Hong Kong Stock
Exchange") are "off market" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006 but are
transactions which occur "on Exchange" for the purposes of the Rules Governing
the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and which
constitute an "on-market share buy-back" for the purposes of the Codes on
Takeovers and Mergers and Share Buy-backs.
Since the commencement of the buy-back announced on 1 August 2025, the Company
has repurchased 4,919,774 ordinary shares for a total consideration of
approximately US$59.7m.
On 1 August 2025, 18,336,400 ordinary shares of US$0.50 each were cancelled
which were awaiting cancellation having been repurchased on the Hong Kong
Stock Exchange previously under the Company's buy-back announced on 6 May
2025. Following the cancellation of those shares and following the
cancellation of shares repurchased on the UK Venues today, the Company's
issued ordinary share capital will consist of 17,399,874,813 ordinary shares
with voting rights. 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 17,399,874,813 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.
In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No
596/2014 (as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom by virtue of
the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended), a full breakdown of the
individual trades made by Merrill Lynch on behalf of the Company is available
