what happened

Icelandic company Heimar hf. reported that it bought 830,000 of its own shares during week 43, for a total of ISK 27,142,000. The notice was published by TradingView.

The purchases took place on October 19, 22 and 23, 2026: 230,000 shares at ISK 32.20, 280,000 at ISK 33.00 and 320,000 at ISK 32.80. After these trades the company holds 37,410,000 shares, roughly 1.90% of its issued capital. Spending on buybacks in 2026 has reached ISK 1,322,582,660.

The buyback program was announced on August 28, 2026. It caps total repurchases at ISK 500,000,000 and runs until that amount is spent, but no later than the end of 2026.

why it matters

This is a routine disclosure from a small company, so it is unlikely to move the broader market. Investors will focus more on the overall size and timing of the program than on a single week of purchases. Buybacks generally provide steady demand for the stock while the program is active.
