But UBS said the latest leg higher appears to reflect expectations of another buyback of up to €2bn for FY27, and that may now be in the price.

“We think another buyback is priced in and we see a risk the shares de-rate post Q4 results on 12 May,” the broker said.

While the company has not officially confirmed a specific, new $2+ billion buyback package for 2027, the following indicates the potential for continued capital returns:

Existing Programme Completion: In February 2026, a new €500 million tranche was launched to complete the remainder of the €4 billion pledge.Continued Strategy: Analysts, including those from Berenberg, suggest that given Vodafone's "ample balance-sheet capacity" and over €10 billion in estimated excess free cash flow over the next four years, the buyback program could be extended into 2027.Focus on Returns: Management continues to focus on "shareholder remuneration" to improve share metrics.Asset Disposals: Further capital may be available, with Vodafone agreeing to sell its stake in Netherlands-based VodafoneZiggo for €1 billion in February 2026
