Stock price and investor view

Naspers has its primary listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange under ticker NPN.SJ and is also listed on the A2X Exchange. The buyback figures matter because each repurchase reduces the number of shares held by public investors, while the company remains a major technology investor through Prosus.
