Perion Network (NASDAQ/TASE: PERI) has expanded its share repurchase program by $50 million, bringing the total authorization to $125 million. As of December 31, 2024, the company had already repurchased 5.2 million shares for $46.8 million under the previous $75 million authorization.

The program expansion, subject to the issuance of the company's 2024 audited annual financial report, demonstrates management's confidence in generating positive free cash flow and balance sheet strength. CEO Tal Jacobson stated that the current share price doesn't reflect Perion's business strength and strategic evolution to Perion One.

The expanded program has no fixed term and allows for share repurchases through open market purchases and private transactions, with timing and amounts based on market conditions, price, and regulatory requirements. The program can be modified or discontinued at any time.

Al 31 dicembre 2024, l'azienda aveva già riacquistato 5,2 milioni di azioni per 46,8 milioni di dollari sotto la precedente autorizzazione di 75 milioni di dollari.

L'ampliamento del programma, soggetto all'emissione del rapporto finanziario annuale auditato dell'azienda per il 2024, dimostra la fiducia della direzione nella capacità di generare un flusso di cassa libero positivo e nella solidità del bilancio. Il CEO Tal Jacobson ha dichiarato che l'attuale prezzo delle azioni non riflette la forza del business di Perion e l'evoluzione strategica verso Perion One.

Il programma ampliato non ha un termine fisso e consente il riacquisto di azioni attraverso acquisti sul mercato aperto e transazioni private, con tempistiche e importi basati sulle condizioni di mercato, sul prezzo e sui requisiti normativi. Il programma può essere modificato o interrotto in qualsiasi momento.

El programa ampliado no tiene un plazo fijo y permite la recompra de acciones a través de compras en el mercado abierto y transacciones privadas, con tiempos y montos basados en las condiciones del mercado, el precio y los requisitos regulatorios. El programa puede ser modificado o discontinuado en cualquier momento.

페리온 네트워크 (NASDAQ/TASE: PERI)는 자사 주식 매입 프로그램을 5천만 달러 확대하여 총 승인 금액을 1억 2천5백만 달러로 늘렸습니다. 2024년 12월 31일 기준으로, 회사는 이전의 7천5백만 달러 승인 하에 4680만 달러에 520만 주를 이미 매입했습니다.

프로그램 확대는 2024년 회사의 감사된 연간 재무 보고서 발행에 따라 달라지며, 경영진의 긍정적인 자유 현금 흐름 생성 및 재무 건전성에 대한 자신감을 보여줍니다. CEO 탈 제이콥슨은 현재 주가가 페리온의 비즈니스 강점과 페리온 원으로의 전략적 진화를 반영하지 않는다고 밝혔습니다.

확대된 프로그램은 고정된 기간이 없으며, 시장 조건, 가격 및 규제 요구 사항에 따라 주식 매입을 위한 공개 시장 구매 및 개인 거래를 허용합니다. 프로그램은 언제든지 수정되거나 중단될 수 있습니다.

CEO Tal Jacobson erklärte, dass der aktuelle Aktienkurs die Stärke des Geschäfts von Perion und die strategische Entwicklung zu Perion One nicht widerspiegelt.

Das erweiterte Programm hat keine feste Laufzeit und ermöglicht den Rückkauf von Aktien durch Käufe am offenen Markt und private Transaktionen, wobei Zeitpunkt und Beträge auf Marktbedingungen, Preis und regulatorischen Anforderungen basieren. Das Programm kann jederzeit geändert oder eingestellt werden.

NEW YORK & TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Perion Network Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: PERI), a leader in advanced technology solving for the complexities of modern advertising, announced today that its Board of Directors authorized a $50 million expansion of the previously authorized share repurchase program of $75 million of its outstanding shares, to a total of $125 million.
