Largest repurchase program in company's history
DALLAS, Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Jacobs' (NYSE: J) Board of Directors has approved a new incremental share repurchase authorization (the "2025 Share Repurchase Program"). The 2025 Share Repurchase Program authorizes the purchase of up to $1.5 billion of Jacobs' common stock over a three-year period.
Jacobs Chair and CEO Bob Pragada said, "The Board's authorization of a $1.5 billion share repurchase program, the largest in our company's history, underscores our confidence in Jacobs's strategic direction and our commitment to return capital to our shareholders. This initiative reflects our robust financial position and our dedication to disciplined capital allocation, aiming to enhance shareholder returns while continuing to invest in growth opportunities."
Previously, in 2023, Jacobs' Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1.0 billion of common stock, which expires on January 25, 2026, (the "2023 Share Repurchase Program"). At the end of the Company's fiscal first quarter of 2025, Jacobs had $271 million dollars in remaining authorization under the 2023 Share Repurchase Program. Jacobs will continue to make repurchases under the 2023 Share Repurchase Program until fully utilized before making purchases under the 2025 Share Repurchase Program.
Under the 2025 Share Repurchase Program, purchases may be made from time to time at management's discretion, in such amounts as management deems appropriate, through a variety of methods, including through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, and subject to other legal and business requirements and market conditions, at any time until January 30, 2028. The 2025 Share Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
