Goldman will buy up to £52m in Kingfisher shares for cancellation by 25 July.
On 25 January, Kingfisher announced a five-year transformation programme and said it was aiming to deliver a £500m sustainable annual profit uplift by the end of the process.
The company, which operates Castorama in France, also announced a capital return of £600m over the next three years.
