Boston Omaha Corporation Announces Adoption of $20 Million Class A Common Stock Repurchase Program
July 25 2024 - 4:07PM
Business Wire
Boston Omaha Corporation (NYSE: BOC) (the “Company”) announced
today that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a share
repurchase program under which the Company can repurchase up to
$20,000,000 of its Class A common stock through September 30, 2025
through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions,
or otherwise in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The share repurchase program will go into
effect on or about August 15, 2024, following the release of the
Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June
30, 2024.
“We believe our Class A common stock to be an attractive
investment when, as we believe is currently the case, it trades at
a meaningful discount to our view of the Company's intrinsic value
and prospects. With the adoption of a repurchase program, we add to
our capital allocation options the ability to opportunistically
repurchase shares alongside our ability to continue investing in
our businesses. We will continue to allocate capital to what we
believe is its best and highest use in order to grow long-term
value on a per share basis,” said Adam Peterson, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer.
The Board also authorized the Company, in its discretion, to
establish “Rule 10b5-1 trading plans” for these share repurchases.
Rule 10b5-1 trading plans allow companies to repurchase shares at
times when they might otherwise be prevented from doing so by
securities laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout
periods.
The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under
the stock repurchase program will depend on a number of factors,
including constraints specified in applicable SEC regulations,
price, general business and market conditions, and alternative
investment opportunities. The share buyback program does not
obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares in
any period, and may be expanded, extended, modified or discontinued
at any time.
