There is no guarantee regarding the exact number of shares to be repurchased. The Company reserves the right to suspend, modify, or terminate the program at any time without prior notice.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the remaining $7,387,000 authorization balance against the most recent quarterly report (10-Q) or annual report (10-K).
- Confirm the total number of shares outstanding to assess the dilution impact of the 318,778 shares already repurchased.
- Review the Company's liquidity position in recent filings to ensure the remaining buyback capacity does not conflict with capital adequacy requirements.
- Monitor future 8-K filings for actual execution of repurchases under the extended 2026 timeline.
