On September 11, 2018, the Board of Directors of Nordson Corporation (the Company) authorized the repurchase of an additional
$500 million of the Companys outstanding common shares. The increased repurchase authorization, when added to the approximately $119 million remaining from the previously approved Board share repurchase authorizations, provides the
Company with a total authorized repurchase availability of approximately $619 million.
The repurchases will be made from time to time in either open
market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases may be made under
Rule10b5-1
plans, which permit shares to be repurchased through
pre-determined
criteria. The timing, volume and nature of share repurchases will be at the discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, other priorities of cash investment, applicable securities laws and other factors. The Companys share
repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common shares, and it may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
A copy of the Companys press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
