On-market Share Buy Back
The Company announces an on-market buy back of its ordinary shares of up to $50 million (Buy Back) as part of its capital management strategy.
Under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), companies are permitted to buy back up to 10% of the lowest number of voting shares on issue during the previous 12 months, without requiring shareholder approval. The Company proposes to acquire up to a maximum of approximately $50m based on our capital management strategy which is within the 10% allowance. In line with standard market practice, the on-market buy back program will be in place for a time period up to 12 months from 31 August 2026. Full details of the Buy Back are set out in Appendix 3C which is available on the Company's investor relations website at https://investors.bravurasolutions.com/Investor-Centre/.
The number of shares purchased, the purchase price and timing of the Buy Back will depend on the Company's prevailing share price, market conditions, the Company's forecast future capital requirements and other considerations including any unforeseen circumstances.
The Buy Back will be funded from existing cash reserves and as required, Bravura's debt financing, referred to above. Bravura will maintain a strong balance sheet following completion of the Buy Back and the Board will continue to assess its capital management strategy.
There can be no certainty that Bravura will repurchase any or all of the shares announced under the Buy Back and Bravura reserves the right to vary, suspend or terminate the Buy Back at any time, subject to and in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
