Silchester raises ComfortDelGro stake to 7.05% after share purchase

It acquired 4 million shares in market transaction.

Silchester International Investors LLP has increased its stake in ComfortDelGro Corporation Limited to 7.05% after acquiring 4 million shares in a market transaction on 4 March 2026, according to a filing.

Silchester International Investors is the largest shareholder of ComfortDelGro. The investment manager paid about $5.85m for the shares at $1.4629 each, according to a regulatory filing.

The purchase raised Silchester’s total interest in the transport operator to 152.74 million shares, up from 148.74 million shares previously.

This increased its shareholding to 7.05% from 6.86%, based on ComfortDelGro’s issued share capital of about 2.17 billion shares excluding treasury shares.

Silchester’s interest is deemed through funds it manages, as the firm has discretion over investment and voting decisions whilst the shares are held by custodian banks on behalf of clients.
