Feb 1 (Reuters) - British cybersecurity firm Darktrace Plc (DARK.L) said on Wednesday it was commencing a buyback plan of up to 35 million shares, amounting to up to 75 million pounds ($92.36 million), which would be completed by Oct. 31.
The announcement comes a day after Darktrace's shares slumped after a short-selling fund questioned its financial statements, to which the firm responded that it had full confidence in its accounting practices.
