Several European companies have reported significant share repurchase activity during the week of September 15-19, 2025, according to regulatory filings published on September 22, 2025. GFT Technologies SE, Bilfinger SE, and Samara Asset Group p.l.c. all disclosed their latest buyback transactions through EQS News, demonstrating continued corporate confidence in their stock valuations and financial positions.

GFT Technologies SE reported acquiring 28,235 of its own shares during the specified period as part of the second tranche of its buyback program that began on July 28, 2025. The Stuttgart-based technology company has now accumulated 680,806 shares since the program's inception on April 15, 2025. Detailed transaction information is available on the company's investor relations website, providing transparency about the repurchase activities.

Bilfinger SE, in its 35th interim report, disclosed the purchase of 11,133 shares during the same September timeframe. The engineering and services company's buyback program, which started on January 21, 2025, has now reached a total volume of 516,679 shares. Like GFT, Bilfinger conducts its repurchases through appointed banks exclusively via stock exchange transactions, with detailed records published on the company's corporate website.

Samara Asset Group p.l.c. reported its first interim buyback notification, having acquired 3,000 shares during the September 15-19 period. The Malta-based company's program commenced on September 15, 2025, with Baader Bank AG executing the transactions through exchange channels.
