Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) announced today the approval
by the company’s Board of Directors of the repurchase of up to an
additional $400 million of common stock through a share repurchase
program. The company has spent approximately $1.4 billion on share
repurchases since the beginning of 2010.
“Arrow’s capital allocation priorities continue to be organic
investments that accelerate our growth, accretive acquisitions that
expand our capabilities and reach, and the return of excess cash to
our shareholders," said Michael J. Long, chairman, president, and
chief executive officer. “Our company’s growth and the effective
management of our balance sheet enabled the Board of Directors to
increase the size of this authorization compared to prior
authorizations.”
This action will permit the company to continue repurchasing
shares of its common stock as market and business conditions
warrant. The program can be terminated at any time. The company may
enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases under the
program. A Rule 10b5-1 plan would generally permit the company to
repurchase shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented
from doing so under certain securities laws.
