AstraZeneca has confirmed that as of 28 February 2026 its issued share capital with voting rights stands at 1,550,966,708 ordinary shares, with no shares held in treasury, resulting in an identical total number of voting rights. This figure provides the reference denominator required under U.K. disclosure rules for investors to assess when they must report holdings or changes in their interest in AstraZeneca, reinforcing transparency around the company’s ownership structure and regulatory compliance.

By clarifying the official voting-rights total, the company offers investors and regulatory bodies a precise basis for monitoring significant shareholdings and governance influence.
