Investec Bank (INVP.L) Buys More Advanced Medical Solutions (AMS.L) Shares Than It Sells In Takeover-Code Disclosure

Investec Bank Plc purchased significantly more Advanced Medical Solutions Group Plc shares than it sold during a single trading session earlier this week, a regulatory filing reveals.

The London-listed bank acquired 345,456 ordinary shares in Advanced Medical Solutions on 12th November 2026, while offloading 200,301 shares in the same period.

That net buying position of roughly 145,000 shares was executed across a narrow price band, with purchases ranging from 282.561p to 283p per unit.

All sale transactions were completed at 283p per share, suggesting relatively stable market conditions for the stock during the session.

The disclosure was filed on 13th November 2026 under Rule 8.5 of the UK Takeover Code, which governs dealing disclosures by exempt principal traders acting in a client-serving capacity.

Investec holds a dual role in the Advanced Medical Solutions corporate structure, serving as both adviser and joint broker to the company, which adds regulatory weight to the transparency requirements.

As a recognised intermediary operating in a client-serving capacity, Investec is required to report such transactions publicly to a Regulatory Information Service during any offer period.

The filing confirmed that no cash-settled or stock-settled derivative transactions were undertaken alongside the share dealings, and no options were written, purchased, or exercised.

Investec also declared that no indemnity arrangements, formal or informal agreements, or understandings relating to voting rights or future acquisitions of relevant securities were in place.

The contact listed on the disclosure was Abhishek Gawde, reachable at a Mumbai-area telephone number, pointing to involvement from Investec’s operations in India in processing the filing.

Rule 8.5 disclosures are a standard feature of the UK takeover regulatory framework, designed to ensure market participants can track share movements by connected intermediaries throughout an offer process.

Advanced Medical Solutions Group Plc trades on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker AMS.L, while Investec Bank Plc is listed under INVP.L in London and INL.JO in Johannesburg.
