CapStar Announces $8 Million Share Repurchase Program
and the Registration of 3,652,094 shares of Common Stock
Nashville, TN (December 21, 2018) CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc. (the Company) (NASDAQ:CSTR) announced today that its board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $8 million of the Companys outstanding shares of common stock.
Although the primary use of our capital will continue to be support of the Companys organic growth opportunities and strategic M&A activities, we believe the repurchase program will be another tool by which we can enhance shareholder value, said Claire W. Tucker, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Repurchases of the Companys common stock will be made in accordance with applicable laws and may be made at managements discretion from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The repurchase program will remain in effect until December 31, 2021 unless the maximum authorized dollar amount of shares of common stock has been repurchased before that date. The Company intends to fund the repurchase program with a combination of cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
The share repurchase program may be extended, modified, amended, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Companys discretion and does not commit the Company to repurchase shares of its common stock. The actual timing of any repurchases and the number and price of the shares to be repurchased under the program will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the performance of the Companys share price, the Companys ongoing capital planning considerations, general market and other conditions, applicable legal requirements and compliance with the terms of the Companys outstanding indebtedness.
Additionally, the Company announced today that its board of directors has authorized the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 to register 3,652,094 shares of the Companys common stock. The registration statement is being filed pursuant to an agreement between the Company and certain shareholders who invested in the Company at its founding in 2008. As of the date of this press release, the Company has not been advised as to any definitive plan of distribution for the shares of common stock to which the registration statement relates.
On August 22, 2016, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement with certain shareholders, the terms of which have been disclosed in previous SEC filings, noted Tucker. The filing of the Form S-3 fulfills our agreement with these shareholders to register their shares of the Companys common stock upon their request. If and when the shares of common stock are ultimately sold by the selling shareholders, we believe that the distribution will increase the daily trading volume of our common stock in the public markets over time. Tucker concluded.
