On October 29, 2021, Luther Burbank Corporation (the “Company”) announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) amended the Company’s existing stock repurchase plan (the “Plan”) to eliminate the Plan’s expiration date. Initially set to expire on December 31, 2021, the Plan will remain open until the remaining balance of previously-authorized funds are fully utilized for repurchases pursuant to the Plan, or until the Board otherwise determines to terminate the Plan.
The Plan, which took effect on October 30, 2020, originally authorized the repurchase of $20.0 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. As of September 30, 2021, approximately $9.8 million of repurchases remained authorized under the Plan. Stock repurchases are expected to be made from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to applicable securities law.
