New Stock Repurchase Program
On February 4, 2025, Protolabs' board of directors approved a new $100 million stock repurchase program.
Under the stock repurchase program, shares of the Company's common stock may be repurchased periodically, including in the open market or privately negotiated transactions. The actual timing, manner, number, and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on several factors, including the market price of Protolabs' common stock, general market and economic conditions, applicable requirements, and other business considerations. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares of the Company's common stock. The new program is open-ended and remains in effect until the total authorized amount is expended or until further action by the board of directors.
