Filed Under: Industry News

The Board of Directors of NewStar Financial Inc. has authorized an increase to NewStar’s existing stock repurchase program, which was originally authorized by the board in October 2015.

The existing plan authorized the repurchase of up to $5.0 million of NewStar’s common stock from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, of which approximately $4.9 million remains available for repurchase.  The plan was increased to approve the repurchase of up to an aggregate of up to $30.0 million of NewStar’s common stock (inclusive of the amount remaining under the existing plan).

The timing and amount of any shares purchased under the repurchase plan will be determined by the NewStar’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The repurchase plan, as amended, will expire on December 31, 2016 unless extended by the Board and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
