Victory Capital Announces New Share Repurchase Authorization

SAN ANTONIO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or the “Company”) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a new common stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $15 million of its Class A Common Stock through December 31, 2021.

“Generating strong free cash flow underpins our ability to return capital to shareholders, through steady share repurchases and a modest cash dividend, while continuing to invest in the business and reduce debt,” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The vast majority of our excess cash flow remains allocated to lowering debt to support strategic growth opportunities.”

The Company’s current $15 million stock repurchase authorization, initiated in September 2019, has been largely completed.

Under the new program, which will commence immediately upon completion of the current program, the Company may purchase its shares from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of the Company's shares, trading volume, capital availability, Company performance and general economic and market conditions. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
