On February 25, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $400 million of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock. Under the repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions and/or other means in compliance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Open market repurchases may be structured to occur in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of shares of common stock under this authorization. The timing, manner, price, and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company at its discretion, and will depend on a variety of factors, including business, economic and market conditions, prevailing stock prices, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. A copy of the press release announcing the repurchase program is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
