Schouw & Co. Repurchases Shares in Week 27 of 2026 Buyback Plan
Danish conglomerate Schouw & Co. continues its year-long share buyback programme, targeting up to DKK 240 million in repurchases through December 2026.
Schouw & Co., the Danish industrial conglomerate, is advancing its structured share repurchase effort, reporting activity during week 27 of a buyback programme that began at the start of 2026.
