The brokerage is taking its shares off the market under its latest buyback plan, which it announced last month, after publishing the revenue numbers for the first half of 2020. Under the latest scheme, the company is planning to repurchase $38.9 million worth of its own ordinary shares.
Notably, Plus500 already completed multiple buyback programs before the latest one. It has repurchased $30 million and $60 million worth of its ordinary shares in two previous buyback programs respectively.
A Massive Jump in Its Share Prices
Plus500 reported a 281 percent revenue gain for the first half of 2020, and this result is clearly reflecting on the publicly-listed share prices of the company. The company shares gained over 70 percent since the beginning of this year and is trading at £14.81 apiece, as of press time.
Though the brokerage started the buyback program a bit slow, it soon upped its efforts and is spending almost half-a-million pounds in every session to repurchase shares. Yesterday Finance Magnates reported on Plus500’s repurchase of 34,000 of its own shares on September 1.
Meanwhile, the company is also planning to enter the physical equity trading market, expanding from the current CFDs offerings.
