NEW
YORK, May 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, CLEAR
(NYSE: YOU) announced that CLEAR's Board of Directors has
authorized a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company
may purchase up to $100 million of
its Class A Common Stock.
"As CLEAR owners, we are intensely focused on economic capital
allocation to maximize long-term returns, including opportunistic
share repurchases," said Caryn
Seidman-Becker, CEO of CLEAR.
Under the repurchase program, CLEAR may purchase shares of its
Class A Common Stock on a discretionary basis from time to time
through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions,
or other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The
timing and actual number of shares repurchased will be determined
by management depending on a variety of factors, including stock
price, trading volume, market conditions and other general business
considerations. The repurchase program has no expiration date and
may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time.
Repurchases under this program will be funded from CLEAR's
existing cash and cash equivalents or future cash flow. As of
March 31, 2022, CLEAR had
$663 million in cash and cash
equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities.
