Moving iMage Technologies (NYSE:MITQ) ("MiT"), a leading technology and services company for cinema, Esports, stadiums, arenas and other out-of-home entertainment venues, today announced it has adopted a new share repurchase program to replace the Company's previous $1.0 million share repurchase program that expired on March 23, 2024.
The new share repurchase program authorizes the repurchase of up to $363,000 worth of shares and will expire at the earlier of June 30, 2024, or when the maximum dollar amount of shares is repurchased. Through March 22, 2024, under the prior repurchase plan, the Company repurchased approximately 6.3% of the total shares outstanding for $637,000. All repurchases will be implemented in accordance with the applicable requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company also established a 10b5-1 stock trading plan that allows for repurchases of MITQ common stock during blackout periods based on MiT's insider trading policy that surrounds important corporate events, announcements and quarterly earnings releases, therefore expanding the number of days available to repurchase shares from approximately 90 days to 250 days on an annual basis. An independent U.S. broker-dealer is acting as the Company's agent to purchase its shares on pre-arranged terms pursuant to the Rule 10b5-1 stock trading plan.
