Regions Financial Corporation Extends Common Stock Repurchase Program
Regions Financial Corporation has some exciting news to share! The Board of Directors recently gave the green light to extend its common stock repurchase program through the last quarter of 2025. This program, first launched back in April 2022, allows for the repurchase of up to $2.5 billion of the company’s common stock from the second quarter of 2022 to the end of 2024. So far, as of September 30, 2024, Regions has already bought back around 31 million shares of common stock, totaling $557 million.
The specifics of when and how much stock will be repurchased depend on different factors like market conditions, internal capital generation, and how much capital is being used for loans or other purposes. It’s important to note that the program doesn’t have specific price targets. Repurchases can happen through various methods, including open market purchases, accelerated share repurchase transactions, or private negotiations. The program is flexible and can be paused at any time.
