Luna Innovations Incorporated Announces Stock Repurchase Program

Source: Business Wire
Luna Innovations Incorporated (NASDAQ: LUNA) today announced that its Board of Directors has reinstituted the Company’s stock repurchase program and authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 million of Luna’s common stock. Luna’s prior stock repurchase program expired on May 31, 2017.

“Reflecting our continuing commitment to building shareholder value, this new stock repurchase program provides us with additional flexibility to utilize capital meaningfully and productively,” said My Chung, president and chief executive officer of Luna.

The number of shares repurchased and the timing of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, share price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with Luna’s working capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors. Under its share repurchase program, the company may, from time to time, purchase shares of its common stock through various means, including open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or tender offers. Open market repurchases of common stock may be made pursuant to trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would permit common stock to be repurchased at a time that Luna might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. The $2.0 million share repurchase authorization expires on September 19, 2018 (unless extended), and does not obligate Luna to purchase any shares. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Board of Directors at any time.

The stock repurchase program will be funded using Luna’s working capital. As of June 30, 2017, Luna had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $10.3 million. As previously announced, on August 9, 2017, the company completed the sale of its high speed optical receiver business for $33.5 million, of which $29.5 million was received by Luna upon closing of the transaction and $4.0 million was placed in escrow.

Luna had approximately 27.7 million shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2017.
