Berkshire Hathaway says it buys back about $4.5 billion of its own shares in the second quarter. The company’s repurchase marks its largest quarterly buyback since 2021, according to the reports.
The outlets also link the buyback to a stronger earnings backdrop. NDTV reports operating profit rises 16% to nearly $13 billion, while the Financial Post notes that operating earnings surge alongside the share repurchase. Together, the coverage presents the buyback as occurring during a period of improved profitability, though neither source cites additional program details such as authorization size, share prices, or whether the company changed its overall capital-allocation strategy.
