Kornit Digital Announces Board Authorization of $100 Million Share Repurchase Program
Rosh-Ha`Ayin, Israel – September 10, 2024 – Kornit Digital Ltd. (“Kornit” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: KRNT), a worldwide market leader in sustainable, on-demand, digital fashion and textile production technologies, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase up to $100 million of the Company’s ordinary shares as part of its capital allocation strategy. This repurchase program, in addition to the $65 million of aggregate share repurchases executed by the Company since 2023, reflects the Board’s confidence in the Company’s strategy and long-term potential, while demonstrating ongoing commitment to driving value creation for its shareholders.
Under the Board authorized repurchase program, the Company’s ordinary shares may be repurchased from time to time using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, all in accordance with U.S. securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company may also, from time to time, enter into plans that are compliant with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of ordinary shares, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion. Repurchases under the repurchase program may begin after the conclusion of a 30-day period for creditors of the Company to object to the Company's intent to effect a deemed distribution by way of repurchase in accordance with the Israeli Companies Regulations (Relief for Public Companies Whose Securities are Traded on Stock Exchanges Outside of Israel), 5760-2000 and the Israeli Companies Regulations (Approval of Distribution), 5761–2001. The actual timing, number, and value of shares to be repurchased will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company's ordinary shares, general market and economic conditions, any objections received by the Company from its creditors, the Company's financial results and liquidity, and other considerations. The Company expects to fund repurchases with cash on hand.
