Section 8 - Other Events
On April 23, 2018, Bancorp's Board of Directors approved a Share Repurchase Program (the "Repurchase Program") under which Bancorp may repurchase up to $25.0 million of its outstanding common stock, which was set to expire on May 1, 2019. On April 25, 2019, Bancorp's Board of Directors approved the extension of the Repurchase Program to June 30, 2019. As of April 25, 2019, Bancorp had utilized $13.3 million of the amount allocated for the Repurchase Program.
Under the Repurchase Program, Bancorp may purchase shares of its common stock through various means such as open market transactions, including block purchases, and privately negotiated transactions. The number of shares repurchased and the timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined at Bancorp’s discretion. Factors include, but are not limited to, stock price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with Bancorp’s general business conditions. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate Bancorp to acquire any specific number of shares of its common stock.
As part of the stock repurchase program, Bancorp entered into a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The 10b5-1 trading plan permits common stock to be repurchased at a time that Bancorp might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws or self-imposed trading restrictions. The 10b5-1 trading plan is administered by an independent broker and is subject to price, market volume and timing restrictions. In connection with the extension of the Repurchase Program, Bancorp entered into an amendment of the trading plan to extend its term to June 30, 2019.
