Item 8.01 Other Events.

On September 27, 2021, WidePoint Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors has removed the suspension from its $2.5 million stock repurchase plan (the “Repurchase Plan”), which Repurchase Plan was suspended on March 9, 2020 as a precaution due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Repurchase Plan allows the Company to repurchase its issued and outstanding common stock from time to time in open- market and privately negotiated transactions and block trades in accordance with federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. As of September 27, 2021, $2.1 million remained available for future purchases under the Repurchase Plan, which does not have an expiration date. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference.
