Newtek Business Services Corp. Announces Extension of Stock Repurchase Program
June 21 2019 - 08:30AM
Newtek Business Services Corp. (the “Company” or “Newtek”) (Nasdaq:
NEWT) today announced that its board of directors approved
extending its current repurchase program (the “Program”) under
which the Company may repurchase up to 300,000 shares (the
“Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.02, which represents
approximately 1.6% of the outstanding common shares of the Company
as of April 30, 2019 (the “Common Shares”). The repurchases
shall be effected through open market purchases, including block
purchases, in such manner as will comply with the provisions of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended and the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). Unless extended
or terminated by its board of directors, the Company anticipates
that the termination date for the Program will be on December 18,
2019. The Company expects to finance the repurchases with existing
capital and the repurchased Shares will be designated as authorized
but unissued Common Shares. In addition, the
Company will continuously evaluate alternate and strategic uses of
its capital depending on, among other things, the fair value of
Newtek’s Common Shares and the other available capital deployment
opportunities.
Under the Program, purchases may be made at management’s
discretion from time to time in open-market transactions, in
accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations,
including Rule 10b-18 of the 1934 Act. The extent to which the
Company repurchases its Shares, and the timing of such repurchases,
will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions,
regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations, as
determined by Newtek’s management team. The Program may be
suspended or discontinued at any time.
