InPlay Oil intends to launch a share repurchase program to buy back up to 10% of its common shares over the course of the next year.

The Calgary, Alberta-based junior oil and gas company said that the Toronto Stock Exchange has accepted its plan to launch a normal course issuer bid to repurchase 1.8 million shares for cancellation.

InPlay's stock has rallied in 2026, lifted alongside the broader oil-and-gas sector by rising crude prices amid conflict and ongoing regional tensions in the Middle East.

Shares are up 41% since the start of the year, and more than doubled over the last 52 weeks to close on Wednesday at 17.44 Canadian dollars ($12.69).

At Wednesday's closing price, the value of the shares intended for buyback would be worth about C$31.3 million.

The company can begin buying back shares starting on May 25.
