NCC Group plc shareholders have been boosted after an £185 million announcement by the Manchester cybersecurity firm this morning.

NCC said it would return £185m to them – representing a total return of £225m since the sale of its Escode division – leading to a 6% spike in its share price.

The new return will be via a combination of  a £170m tender offer, with shareholders invited to tender some or all of their ordinary shares at 145 pence apiece, alongside a new £15m general share buyback programme.
