The buyback is essentially complete on a dollar basis with 2 weeks left in the program. No new authorization was announced, so the capital return catalyst is exhausted. Monitor the next 6-K for any new board resolution extending or renewing the buyback program, which would signal continued capital return commitment.

Executive Summary
Nomura Holdings filed its monthly share buyback report for August 2026, disclosing it has repurchased 46.9% of the authorized shares (46.86M of 100M shares) and fully utilized the JPY 60B authorization (JPY 59,999,879,300 spent). The buyback program runs through September 30, 2026, with no repurchases reported in August (likely due to blackout periods around quarterly results). The filing is a routine update on a previously authorized capital return program with no new financial data or strategic changes.
