Molten Ventures PLC Announces Share Repurchase and Executive Disclosure

Molten Ventures PLC (LSE: GROW), a London‑listed venture‑capital firm focused on high‑growth technology enterprises, confirmed a share‑repurchase transaction executed on 17 September 2025. The company, whose shares were trading at 356.40 pence on that day, bought 50,000 ordinary shares—each valued at one pence—through Goodbody Stockbrokers UC. This purchase was part of the repurchase programme announced on 4 August 2025, signalling the firm’s continued confidence in its capital structure and its commitment to enhancing shareholder value.

In parallel, the firm disclosed a regulatory filing concerning its chief executive officer, Ben Wilkinson. Under the rules governing Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities (PDMRs) and Persons Closely Associated (PCAs), the company submitted an initial notification on 18 September 2025. The filing confirms Mr. Wilkinson’s role as Chief Executive Officer and provides the required details of the transaction, ensuring transparency for investors and regulators alike.

The share‑repurchase is modest relative to Molten’s market capitalisation of approximately £637 million and the current price‑to‑earnings ratio of 691.8, a figure that reflects the firm’s high‑growth focus and the speculative nature of its investment portfolio. The repurchase, conducted at 356.40 pence per share, aligns with the company’s strategy of returning capital to shareholders while maintaining sufficient liquidity to fund future acquisitions and fund commitments within the European technology ecosystem.

Molten Ventures continues to operate from its London headquarters, serving clients across the continent. Further details about the firm’s investment activities and corporate governance can be found on its website at www.moltenventures.com .
