Airtel Africa Plc has disclosed 3.62 billion voting rights as at September 30, 2026, following the exclusion of 6.14 million ordinary shares held in treasury.
The telecommunications and mobile money services provider made the disclosure in a regulatory notification dated October 1, 2026, pursuant to the Financial Conduct Authority’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rule 5.6.1R.
According to the company, its issued share capital stood at 3,630,365,966 ordinary shares as at the close of business on September 30, 2026.
Each ordinary share has a nominal value of $0.50 and carries one voting right.
However, Airtel Africa said 6,136,678 ordinary shares were held in treasury. The shares do not carry voting rights and were therefore excluded from the total voting rights available to shareholders.
Consequently, the company’s total voting rights stood at 3,624,229,288.
The figure represents the denominator shareholders are required to use when determining whether they need to notify the company of their interest in, or changes to their interest in, Airtel Africa under the FCA’s disclosure rules.
The latest disclosure provides an update on Airtel Africa’s share capital and voting structure following the close of business on September 30.
Airtel Africa operates telecommunications and mobile money services across 14 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, providing mobile voice, data and mobile money services to subscribers.
The company said its strategy is focused on delivering customer experience across its operating footprint while advancing its corporate purpose of transforming lives across Africa.
The notification was issued from London and Lagos on October 1, 2026, and approved for release in Nigeria.
