Kaman Corporation Announces $50 Million Share Repurchase Program

(NYSE:KAMN) Kaman Corporation announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a new stock repurchase program of up to $50 million. The company intends to purchase shares to limit future dilution from the issuance of shares under its employee stock plans.

“This new repurchase authorization combined with our strong dividend reinforces our continued commitment to delivering value to our shareholders,” said Jamie Coogan, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “It also reflects the strength of our cash flow generation and financial position. While our first priority will be to limit dilution from employee stock plans, the plan provides us with flexibility to purchase additional shares if conditions warrant.”

The method, timing, and amount of shares repurchased under the new repurchase authorization will depend on several factors, including market conditions, capital and liquidity requirements, and alternative uses for cash available. Purchases may be made in open-market transactions, block transactions on or off an exchange or in privately negotiated transactions. The new repurchase authorization replaces the authorization approved in April 2015.
