A buyback, also called a share repurchase, is when a company buys its own shares from the market or shareholders. This usually involves purchasing a set number of shares at a prearranged price, either on the open market or directly from shareholders. The bought-back shares are then held as treasury stock, reducing the overall number of shares available in the market.
