"The purpose of repurchasing shares is to reduce the company's share capital by cancelling the shares acquired. For the company's shareholders, it was an opportunity to sell some or all their shares. Given the smaller number of shares outstanding after a buyback, the value of the remaining shares increases,” says Vytautas Bakšinskas, the real estate fund manager at INVL Asset Management, which manages INVL Baltic Real Estate.
