America Movil, the largest telecommunications company in Latin America, received approval from its owners to double its share buyback fund, after almost fully using what was originally approved.
The company’s fund went from 25,000 million to 51,000 million pesos, equivalent to approximately 4% of its market capitalization on the Stock Market.
At the end of November 19, the owner of Telcel had already used more than 98% of the funds that its owners had approved in April.
The new resources will be valid until the next ordinary annual meeting in April 2022.
So far this year, América Móvil has acquired more own shares than during the previous six years combined.
The acquisition of own securities serves companies to reward shareholders, including with tax benefits – by avoiding the taxes that dividends imply – or as a tool to stabilize the price of shares. The shares of the Mexican market continue to be undervalued, which has led several companies to more actively exercise their repurchase fund or even acquire their papers and exit the market.
In the October meeting with investors and analysts, the telecommunications firm estimated that it would give its owners $ 3 billion in dividends and buybacks. This year the company has already paid a dividend of 0.4 pesos for each outstanding share.
América Móvil also received approval from its owners for the incorporation of Claudia Jáñez Sánchez and Gisselle Morán Jiménez to its board of directors as independent members, so that the governing body has 15 members.
