Vodafone Group Plc reported a solid annual earnings performance, with headline earnings per share increasing significantly, driven by strong results from its African operations and a resilient service revenue base. The group’s dividend policy was upheld, with a final dividend announced that represents a notable rise from the previous year. In parallel, Vodafone Group is pursuing a treasury‑share programme, having purchased several million of its own shares at a price above the market level. The shares are intended to be held in treasury, reflecting the company’s strategy to manage capital structure and support long‑term shareholder value. The combination of robust operating results and a proactive capital management approach underpins Vodafone Group’s outlook for continued growth and value creation.
