Flow Capital Unveils Share Repurchase Program
TORONTO, ON -- Flow Capital Corp. (TSXV: FW), often referred to as Flow Capital, has made an exciting announcement regarding its strategy for enhancing shareholder value. The company intends to initiate a normal course issuer bid (NCIB) on the TSX Venture Exchange, allowing the repurchase and cancellation of up to 2,289,547 common shares. This initiative represents approximately 10% of the public float of the company's shares held by non-insiders.
Details of the Share Repurchase Plan
The NCIB is set to commence shortly, aiming to terminate at the earlier of the purchase of the shares, a notice of termination, or the specified end date. This plan reflects Flow Capital's evaluation of its market position and the perceived undervaluation of its shares in the current marketplace.
Purpose of the Repurchase
The management at Flow Capital recognizes that at times, market conditions may not fully represent the intrinsic value and promising outlook of the company. Hence, repurchasing shares is seen as a prudent strategy to utilize financial resources effectively and bolster shareholder equity.
Broker Engagement and Purchase Methodology
Flow Capital has appointed Ventum Financial Corp. as its designated broker for the NCIB. The shares will be acquired on the open market, with all purchases processed using existing working capital. The transactions will be done at current market prices, along with any applicable brokerage fees. Following the completion of each purchase, the shares will be cancelled, effectively reducing the total share count in circulation.
Automatic Purchase Plan in Action
In conjunction with the NCIB, Flow Capital has established an automatic purchase plan (APP) that stipulates clear guidelines for share purchases. This plan allows the broker to execute transactions autonomously while adhering to conditions outlined by the company and in compliance with securities regulations and exchange policies.
Commitment from Company Leadership
To maintain transparency, Flow Capital emphasizes that none of its current directors, officers, or insiders plan to sell any of their holdings during the NCIB period. Recently, the company completed a previous NCIB in which it successfully purchased 1,579,000 common shares, demonstrating its commitment to its shareholders.
