Reece rolls out fresh buyback after October repurchase
At the time of writing, plumbing-products supplier Reece Limited (ASX: REH) has announced an on-market share buyback program of up to AU$35 million. The decision follows the company’s AU$365 million off-market share repurchase, which concluded last month in October.
Share price responds positively
Shares of Reece rose around 2.8 per cent on the news — a reflection of investor confidence that the buyback signals management’s belief in long-term value. This uptick comes as broader market conditions remain choppy, underscoring how corporate actions like buybacks can sway sentiment.
Why the extra buyback matters
The on-market buyback offers a way for Reece to return excess capital to shareholders while keeping its balance sheet strong. The firm had already repurchased roughly 28.1 million shares at AU$13.00 apiece under the prior off-market program — representing around 4.3 per cent of its issued share capital.
By re-entering the market for further share repurchases, Reece signals that it still believes its stock is undervalued — potentially boosting earnings per share (EPS) and enhancing shareholder value over time.
What investors should watch next
The company has discretion on how many shares to repurchase under the on-market program: timing and volume will depend on market conditions and share-price moves. Analysts and investors will likely keep an eye on any further capital-management moves — and whether improved operational performance supports a re-rating of the stock.
