Item 8.01 Other Events.
At its July 14, 2022 meeting, the Ennis, Inc. Board of Directors authorized an additional $20 million in funding for the Company’s share repurchase program that was first implemented in 2008. With this latest funding authorization, the cumulative funds authorized for share repurchases totals $60 million. There is now a remaining balance of $23.9 million authorized for share repurchases. The Board’s principal motivation in authorizing share repurchases is to mitigate or offset the dilutive impact of share issuances for acquisitions and equity compensation. Under the repurchase program, purchases may be made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors. Repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time or from time to time without prior notice, subject to applicable insider trading rules and securities laws and regulations.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
