FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Maximus Board Authorizes $200 Million Increase to Purchase Program of Maximus Common Stock
Previous $200 million authorization has been completed
(Tysons, Va. – December 11, 2024) – Maximus (NYSE: MMS), a leading employer and provider of government services, announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a $200 million increase to the purchase program for Maximus common stock, enabling ongoing, opportunistic purchase activity.
The previous $200 million authorization announced in June 2024 had $171.4 million available capacity at September 30, 2024. Recent share purchase activity in the current quarter consumed the remaining capacity.
The Company intends to purchase shares opportunistically at prevailing market prices in the open market, via 10b5-1 plans, or in privately negotiated transactions, with the amount and timing of purchases depending on market conditions, corporate needs, and other factors.
This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of Common Stock, has no specified expiration date, and may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.
“We are confident in our future and ability to be an effective and efficient partner to government. Increasing the amount authorized under this program is consistent with our opportunistic approach to purchasing our common stock,” commented Bruce Caswell, President and Chief Executive Officer of Maximus. “Our capital allocation priorities are unchanged and continue to be based on a disciplined approach to maximize value for our shareholders.”
