Buyback sets clear limits
The agreement allows repurchases at a maximum average price of EUR 200.00 per share, with cancellation intended to neutralize dilution from the employee share plan. The operation covers a maximum 1.77 percent of existing share capital, and the new employee shares are scheduled to become effective on December 17, 2026, according to FinanzNachrichten.
Three dated milestones
On July 30, 2026, Capgemini reported H1 revenue of EUR 12.08 billion, up 8.80 percent, with a 12.50 percent operating margin, according to Ideal Investor. On September 12, 2026, Capgemini agreed to sell Capgemini Government Solutions, an operation representing 0.40 percent of 2025 revenue, as reported by FinanzNachrichten.

What does the target cut signal?
