Tremor International Announces $20 Million Share Repurchase Program

 

Tremor International Ltd. (AIM/NASDAQ: TRMR) ("Tremor" or the "Company"), a global leader in Video, Data, and Connected TV ("CTV") advertising, offering an end-to-end technology platform that enables advertisers to optimize their campaigns and media partners to maximize yield on their digital advertising inventory, announces that its Board of Directors has approved a $20 million share repurchase program under which Tremor is authorized to purchase up to $20 million of its Ordinary Shares. The share repurchase program will be financed through existing cash resources.

 

The initiation of this further share repurchase program follows the Company's $75 million share repurchase program that commenced on 1 March 2022, which has approximately £430,000 remaining within the program.

 

About The Share Repurchase Program

 

·    The Board has authorized Tremor to purchase up to $20 million of its Ordinary Shares on the AIM Market (the "Authority") and the repurchase program will be financed through existing cash reserves

·    The repurchase program will be independently managed by finnCap Ltd, the Company's AIM broker, which will make trading decisions independently and without the influence of the Company

·    In accordance with the AIM Rules, the repurchase program will be effected in accordance with the Authority in that the maximum price paid per Ordinary Share is to be no more than 105% of the average middle market closing price of an Ordinary Share on AIM for the five business days preceding the date of purchase

·    The repurchase program will commence 1 October 2022 and will continue until the earlier of either 1 April 2023, or until it has been completed

·    Share repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations, and any Ordinary Shares acquired as a result of the repurchase program will be announced to the market without delay

·    Any Ordinary Shares acquired as a result of the repurchase program will be reclassified as dormant shares under the Israeli Companies Law (without any rights attached thereon) and will be held in treasury

·    The share repurchase program does not obligate Tremor to repurchase any particular amount of Ordinary Shares and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion, subject to applicable law

·    Due to the limited liquidity in the issued Ordinary Shares, any repurchase of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Authority on any trading day may represent a significant proportion of the daily trading volume in the Ordinary Shares on AIM and may exceed 25% of the average daily trading volume, being the limit laid down in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 and, accordingly, the Company will not benefit from the exemption contained in this Article

For the purposes of the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules, Tremor notifies the market that as at 1 September 2022, the Company's issued share capital consists of 187,493,039 ordinary shares with a nominal value of NIS0.01 each ("Ordinary Shares"), along with 42,554,781 shares reclassified as dormant shares under the Israeli Companies Law (without any rights attached thereon), the Company holds these dormant shares in Treasury. Therefore, the total number of shares with voting rights is 144,938,258.

The above figure of 144,938,258 Ordinary Shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
