(NYSE:KAMN) Kaman Corporation announced today that its board of directors has authorized a new stock repurchase program of up to $100 million. The company intends to purchase shares to limit future dilution from the issuance of shares under its employee stock plans.
“This new repurchase authorization combined with our strong and recently increased dividend reinforces our continued commitment to delivering increased shareholder value,” said Robert Starr, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “It also reflects our increased cash flow generation and strong financial position. While our first priority with purchases will be to limit dilution from employee stock plans, the board has given us flexibility to purchase additional shares if conditions warrant.”
The method, timing, and amount of shares repurchased under the new repurchase authorization will depend on several factors, including market conditions, capital and liquidity requirements, and alternative uses for cash available. Purchases may be made in open-market transactions, block transactions on or off an exchange, or in privately negotiated transactions. The new repurchase authorization replaces the authorization approved in November 2000.
