On June 20, 2023, GEE Group Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE American: JOB) issued a press release announcing that it has repurchased 647,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”) in a series of open market share repurchases that began on May 22, 2023. The program was previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) with authorization to purchase up to $20 million of the Company’s currently outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company expects to continue to execute open market repurchases going forward.
As previously disclosed, under the share repurchase program, the Company’s management is authorized to repurchase shares of Common Stock through open market purchases under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance with other applicable legal requirements. The Company expects to continue to fund the share repurchase program from operating cash flow and cash on hand. The timing and total amount of Common Stock repurchases will depend upon the Company’s trading windows, business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices, liquidity and other factors. The share repurchase program is presently authorized to continue through December 31, 2023, may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the Company to repurchase any number of shares of Common Stock. Upon the expiration of the share repurchase program, the Board may, in its sole discretion, authorize a new share repurchase program, however, it is not obligated to do so.
A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on the Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
