  • InterContinental Hotels Group to Cancel 23,445 Repurchased Shares to Boost EPS
    May 1, 2026, 2:27 AM EDT. InterContinental Hotels Group (LSE:IHG) bought back 23,445 ordinary shares at an average price of $143.71 on April 30, 2026, through Goldman Sachs International. The company plans to cancel these shares, reducing total shares outstanding to approximately 149.98 million, excluding 5.43 million held in treasury. The buyback follows authority granted at the May 2025 AGM and aims to support earnings per share (EPS) by lowering share count. However, the scale of repurchase is minor relative to the total shares outstanding, and the transaction involved a cash outflow. This move underlines IHG's active capital return policy amid ongoing market activity.
