  • BBVA Cancels 75 Million Treasury Shares, Reduces Capital by €36.7 Million
    April 11, 2026, 2:56 PM EDT. Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA) executed a partial capital reduction by cancelling nearly 75 million treasury shares, reducing share capital by €36.7 million. This move follows shareholder approval from the March 20, 2026 meeting. The cancelled shares, acquired during BBVA's buyback programme, were already held in treasury, so no cash was paid out to shareholders. Post-operation, BBVA's share capital is approximately €2.76 billion, with about 5.63 billion shares outstanding. The reduction, recorded against distributable reserves, means creditors cannot oppose under Spanish law. BBVA will formally delist the cancelled shares, which could enhance value per remaining share. Analysts currently rate BBVA stock as Hold with a $22 price target.
