December 20 2023 - 8:30AM
Business Wire
Hyliion Holdings Corp. (NYSE: HYLN), a developer of sustainable
electricity producing technology, today announced that its Board of
Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $20
million of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, par
value $0.001 per share.
“The initiation of a stock repurchase program underscores our
confidence in the potential of KARNO’s innovative generator
technology and in our ability to complete development and delivery
of initial units next year,” stated Thomas Healy, Founder and CEO
of Hyliion. “Our strong capital position affords us the opportunity
to further enhance value for our shareholders, particularly at a
time when we believe the market has yet to fully value the
Company’s potential.”
Hyliion recently announced that it is winding down its
powertrain operations while concentrating future efforts on
development of the KARNO generator. The Company reported $324
million of cash and investments at the end of September 2023 and
projected a year-end balance of approximately $285 million after
completing most powertrain wind down activities. Hyliion expects to
begin initial paid deployments of the KARNO generator in late 2024
and projects cash spending of approximately $40 million for the
year.
Repurchases of shares of common stock under the stock repurchase
program will be made in the open market and in accordance with
applicable securities laws. The stock repurchase program does not
obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common
stock, and it may be suspended or terminated without notice at any
time at the Company’s discretion.
