Share Repurchase PRogram by $100 Million

 

HOUSTON, February 18, 2020 – Cadence Bancorporation (NYSE: CADE) (“Cadence”) today announced that its board of directors has authorized an increase to its share repurchase program of Cadence’s Class A common stock by an additional $100 million. Cadence previously announced a $50 million share repurchase authorization on July 26, 2019. Cadence repurchased $20.2 million from July 26, 2019 through December 31, 2019, and from January 27 through February 14, 2020, the Company repurchased an additional $20.5 million.

 

Cadence expects to fund the program with cash on hand and cash generated from operations. The repurchase authorization may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at Cadence’s discretion and does not obligate Cadence to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock. The actual timing, number and value of the shares to be purchased under the program will be determined by Cadence’s management at its discretion.

 

Cadence’s Class A common stock repurchase program will be subject to various factors, including Cadence’s capital position, liquidity, financial performance and alternate uses of capital, stock trading price, general market and other conditions, and applicable legal requirements. The Class A common stock repurchases may be accomplished through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions.
