Item 8.01. Other Events.
On December 2, 2015, the board of directors of Exactech, Inc. (the “Company”) has authorized the company to buy back up to 1.0 million shares of Exactech stock over the next two years. A copy of a press release announcing the common stock repurchase authorization is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Any repurchases will be made from time to time in open market transactions. Repurchases may be made at times under 10b5-1 plans, which would permit shares to be repurchased through pre-determined criteria when the Company would otherwise be prohibited from doing so under insider trading laws. The common stock repurchases will be at the discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors. This share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and it may be suspended or discontinued at any time, subject to the requirements of the governing 10b5-1 plan.
