Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Buybacks reduce float and can provide price support; the disclosed amount (€2.41m) is meaningful for a small-cap, though the exact float size is not stated. Historically, discretionary buybacks often yield modest near-term upside, especially when executed at steady tempo and with supportive commentary from management. The Treasury stake (808k shares) confirms ongoing capital-return posture; risk includes limited longer-term impact if no further catalysts emerge.
