RELX PLC (REL.LN) and RELX NV (REN.AE) said Thursday that they will repurchase a maximum of 100 million pounds ($133.7 million) worth of their respective shares in early 2018.

The two companies represent the Amsterdam and London listings of information and analytics company RELX Group.

RELX PLC said that it will purchase as many as 101 million of its own shares, while RELX NV will repurchase up to 89.4 million of its own shares, equivalent to the ratio of their interests in RELX Group as a whole.

The buyback will be carried out between Jan. 2, 2018 and Feb. 12, 2018, and the repurchased shares will be held in treasury, the companies said.
