Buyback of Shares

Buyback of shares means to buy own shares by company. By learning this term, you will think, is it foolish and stupid way to repay the fund which company has received in the form of share capital? No one returns fund after receiving. Simply, there is no logic of buyback of shares, but you will feel wonder after reading  this recent news.

Unum which is an insurance company  plans $1 billion buyback of shares. See its ref. at here. From reading of this news, you will be find that buyback of shares is the way to improve financial condition of company. One side by buying own shares, it shows company's investment and other side it also increases earning per share.

Moreover, in India, there are 77 A , 77 AA and 77 B provisions of Indian company act 1956 deal only with buyback of shares. SEBI regulations also lights on this matter. We find also it as useful tool for company because company can easily increase his ERP by just decreasing the numbers of shares. We know that ERP is ratio of  ( profit after interest and pref. dividend / No. of equity shares ) To decrease the number of shares by buyback of shares means to increase ERP. If we study above example, then

1. #  Unum Company wants to effective use of his capital reserves with buyback because all 1$ billion stock will be bought through its capital reserves. ( Note : But in India, it is not possible because company can use only free reserves for this purpose. )

2.  # This technique is also use to improve the market value of per share. ( Read last line of news : Unum's stock closed at $25.14 Wednesday, down 50 cents from the previous day's close. In after hours trading and following the earnings announcement, Unum's stock was up 8 cents)

3rd Step : Fix the time limit of buyback of shares

4th Step : Filling of declaration of solvency before buyback in newspaper

5th Step : Use Only free reserves and securities premium for buyback of shares
