Exhibit 99.1
Riskified Receives Israeli Court Approval for $75M Share Repurchase Program

NEW YORK, NY / November 20, 2023 / Businesswire / Riskified Ltd. (NYSE: RSKD), a leader in eCommerce fraud and risk intelligence, today announced that it has received approval from the Tel Aviv District Court Economic Department (“Israeli Court”) to implement its previously announced share repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $75 million of its ordinary shares. The Israeli Court approval is valid through May 19, 2024. The Company may file extension requests with the Israeli Court on an ongoing basis as required.

Eido Gal, Chief Executive Officer, stated: “We are pleased to announce that the Israeli Court has approved our Repurchase Program. We expect to leverage this program to take advantage of attractive repurchasing opportunities and to manage share dilution. Our strong balance sheet enables us to continue investing in the growth of the business, while simultaneously driving shareholder value by executing this Repurchase Program.”

The Repurchase Program, approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") on August 8, 2023, authorizes the Company to repurchase ordinary shares, from time to time in the open market, including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws. The Company may repurchase all or a portion of the authorized amount. The timing, as well as the number and value of any shares repurchased under the program, will be determined by the Company at its discretion under the Board authorized program and will depend on a variety of factors, including management's assessment of the intrinsic value of the Company's ordinary shares, the market price of the Company's ordinary shares, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, alternative investment opportunities, and applicable legal requirements. The Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of ordinary shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The share repurchases will be funded from existing cash and cash equivalents.
