Nordson Authorizes Additional $200M for Share Repurchase Program
August 27, 2015 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Nordson Corporation today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $200 million of the Company’s common shares. This new authorization adds capacity to the Board’s December 2014 authorization to repurchase $300 million of shares, under which approximately $147 million remained available for share repurchases at the quarter ended July 31, 2015.
“The Board’s action reflects continued confidence in the long-term strength of our company and our ongoing commitment to creating shareholder value,” said Nordson President and CEO Michael F. Hilton. “Nordson continues to generate strong cash flow which enables us to be disciplined yet opportunistic in repurchasing shares while also making investments to fund long term organic and acquisitive growth opportunities and continuous improvement initiatives.”
Expected uses for repurchased shares include, but are not limited to, funding benefit programs including stock options, restricted stock and 401(k) matching. Shares repurchased will be treated as treasury shares until used for such purposes.
Shares may be purchased from time to time at prevailing prices, subject to market conditions, share price and other considerations. Purchases will be made on the open market pursuant to the applicable Securities Exchange Act Rules and will be funded from operating cash flows.
