Wizz Air Holdings (LSE:WIZZ) has provided an update on its share capital and voting rights structure, confirming that as at 31 January 2026 the company has a single class of ordinary shares in issue. Total issued share capital stands at 103,438,631 shares, with no shares held in treasury, and each share carrying one voting right, subject to proportional disenfranchisement provisions applicable to certain non-qualifying foreign shareholders.
The airline also disclosed a theoretical fully diluted share count of 127,758,164 shares. This figure assumes the full conversion of outstanding convertible notes alongside the exercise of vested employee share options, offering investors a clearer basis for assessing voting rights, disclosure thresholds and ownership calculations under UK transparency regulations.
From an investment perspective, the group’s outlook is increasingly supported by an improving financial trajectory, with notably stronger cash generation complemented by positive technical momentum and a relatively low price-to-earnings valuation. These positives are balanced by ongoing balance sheet leverage and execution risks highlighted in recent market commentary, including pressure on unit revenues, rising cost inputs and timing uncertainty associated with the fleet transition.
