Latest $GNS news - SINGAPORE, June 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Group Limited (NYSE American: GNS) ("Genius Group", "GNS" or the "Company"), a leading AI-powered education group, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized management to buy back up to 13.2 million Class A Ordinary Shares prior to the Company’s Annual General Meeting on July 7, 2026, representing 100% utilisation of the buyback mandate approved by shareholders at the 2025 AGM.
The Board’s authorization, made on June 7, 2026, is pursuant to Proposal 7 of the Company’s 2025 AGM held on July 7, 2025, in which shareholders approved a buyback of up to 20% of issued Class A Ordinary Shares (a maximum of approximately 17.6 million shares).
Between August and January 2026, the Company executed four separate buybacks totalling 4.4 million shares, leaving 13.2 million shares of authorised capacity under the mandate, which expires on June 30, 2026.
Buybacks may be effected, at management’s discretion as to timing and amount, in one or more transactions on the NYSE American or in off-market purchases, up to the authorized amount in accordance with the Singapore Companies Act 1967, SEC regulations and NYSE American listing rules.
Roger James Hamilton, Founder and CEO of Genius Group, said “Genius Group is currently trading at a meaningful discount to its Net Asset Value. Returning that value to our shareholders by reducing the share count is one of the highest-conviction capital allocation decisions this Board can take."
"We are aligned with our shareholders in building the balance sheet through our education businesses and dual-treasury strategy, and in communicating that value through our NAVPS metric. We thank our Board for today’s approval, and we are committed to utilising as high a proportion of this mandate as we can within the one-month window.”
Company’s Key Metric Focus on Net Asset Value per Share (“NAVPS”)
Further to the Company’s recently launched AI Treasury strategy, the Board has also voted to make Net Asset Value per Share (“NAVPS”) a key metric for the Company. NAVPS is defined as the Company’s total assets less total liabilities, divided by the total number of outstanding shares.
The Company’s NAVPS was $0.60 at the end of Financial Year 2025 (audited). The Board believes the combination of (i) growing the Company’s net assets through its education businesses and dual-treasury strategy, and (ii) reducing the share count through buybacks and previously announced retirements, will compound NAVPS growth in 2026 and beyond.
Going forward, the Company intends to publish NAVPS quarterly, with publicly held securities in the AI Treasury marked to market at each quarter end, and Bitcoin in the Bitcoin Treasury marked to market once Bitcoin purchases recommence.
Future Anticipated Share Capital Reduction and Future Buybacks
Any and all reduction in share capital from the Board’s buyback approval and management’s subsequent actions are in addition to the previously announced 30.1 Million Shares identified by the Company from its ERL Share Count Exercise and ICC Arbitration Win that it intends to retire or remove from the Company’s public float.
The amount also excludes the reduction of 10 million Class A ordinary shares as a result of the conversion of 10 million Class A shares to Class C shares previously disclosed by the Company.
Furthermore, shareholders will vote for a further 20% share buyback mandate at the upcoming AGM, valid for the next twelve months commencing July 7, 2026.

@viceyrella Meica im Glas kosten in vielen Supermärkten fast das gleiche, 20,irgendwas das Kilo.
Aber der Rest ist unverschämt. Ich dachte vor Jahren schon, als ich nen Katalog im Briefkasten hatte, oh, das ist aber teuer. Da war aber alles noch etwa 30% günstiger 😳
