Item 8.01 Other Events.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Ellie Mae, Inc. (the “Company”), under authority delegated to it by the Company’s Board of Directors, approved a new stock repurchase program granting the Company authority to repurchase up to $250 million of its outstanding common stock through August 2020. Under this new stock repurchase program, which is designed to return value to its stockholders and minimize dilution from stock issuances, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market with available working capital. The new stock repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors is substantially similar to the Company’s previous program authorizing the repurchase of up to $75 million in common stock, which expired in May 2017.
