Myriad Announces New $200 Million Share Repurchase Program
Myriad is also announcing today that its Board of Directors has authorized a new $200 million stock repurchase program. This decision is reflective of Myriad Genetics commitment to maintaining a balanced capital deployment strategy said Jim Evans, Chief Financial Officer of Myriad Genetics, Inc.
Repurchases under the $200 million authorization will be made through open market or privately negotiated purchases as determined by the Companys management. The amount and timing of stock repurchases will depend on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, acquisition activity and other factors.
Fiscal Year 2013 Outlook
