Shell's October 2026 Share Repurchase Activity Across LSE and Euronext Amsterdam

According to the filing, Shell plc is an England and Wales-incorporated energy company listed under Commission File Number 1-32585, which reports annually on Form 20-F. The buy-back programme at issue was previously announced on 30 July 2026, and the purchases described cover three separate trading days during the first week of October 2026. All repurchased shares are designated for cancellation rather than being held in treasury.

The filing reports that on each of the three days, purchases were executed on two venues: the London Stock Exchange in British pounds sterling and Euronext Amsterdam in euros. On October 1, the LSE volume weighted average price was £35.5937 and the XAMS volume weighted average price was €41.7419. On October 2, those figures were £35.9922 and €42.4470 respectively. On October 5, they were £36.1340 and €42.7918 respectively. No shares were recorded as purchased on Chi-X (CXE), BATS (BXE), CBOE DXE, or TQEX on any of the three dates, according to the filing.

The filing states that the programme operates under both an on-market limb, conducted within pre-set parameters under the Company's general authority to repurchase shares on-market, and an off-market limb, carried out pursuant to an off-market buyback contract approved by shareholders. Goldman Sachs International acts as the independent agent executing trades on behalf of the Company within those parameters. Detailed breakdowns of individual trades are referenced as attachments to each day's announcement within the filing.
