This is a routine buyback execution update with no new authorization or material financial disclosure. The pace of purchases has accelerated (12M and 10M on the last two days) but this is not a surprise — it follows the Jan 30 and Jul 31 program announcements. Monitor Lloyds' upcoming 20-F or next 6-K for any change in buyback pace or capital return strategy.
