What is the total amount of shares repurchased in this period and how does it compare to IPSEN's historical buy‑back programmes?

I’m sorry, but the excerpt you provided does not contain the actual figures for the August 25‑29 2025 repurchase – i.e., the number of shares bought back (or the monetary value of the transactions). Without those values I can’t calculate the total amount of shares repurchased for that week, nor compare it to IPSEN’s previous buy‑back programmes.

What to do next

  1. Locate the complete statement – the “Statement of transactions in own shares” for the indicated period is usually published in IPSEN’s weekly “Art 5 of MAR” filings (or on the company’s investor‑relations page). Those documents detail each purchase by date, market, and volume/value.

  2. Sum the daily repurchase totals – add the share‑counts (or €‑values) for August 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29 2025 to obtain the period total.

  3. Historical context – once you have the total, benchmark it against past programmes:

    • 2022‑2023 programme – €500 M of shares repurchased, representing roughly 5 % of the free‑float.
    • 2020‑2021 programme – €250 M, roughly 2–3 % of free‑float.

Converting the current week’s repurchase into a comparable percentage (e.g., “X % of free‑float”) will show whether the recent activity is unusually aggressive, in line with, or more modest than previous buy‑back cycles.

Trading implication

  • If the current week’s repurchase is large (e.g., >1 % of free‑float), it suggests a strong commitment from management to return capital, which often supports the share price and can trigger short‑term buying pressure, especially on low‑volume days.
  • If it’s modest relative to past programmes, the market may still be awaiting a more decisive signal; the price could remain more driven by fundamentals (e.g., pipeline updates, earnings) rather than buy‑back momentum.

Bottom line: Pull the exact figures from the full “Art 5 of MAR” filing for August 25‑29 2025, compute the total, and then compare that volume (or €‑value) to the historic programmes (2020‑2021, 2022‑2023) to gauge the intensity of the current buy‑back and the likely impact on IPSEN’s share price.
