ANNOUNCES ADOPTION OF SECOND STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
Seneca Financial Corp. ("Seneca Financial") (OTC Pink: SNNF), the holding company for Seneca Savings, announced that it has adopted a second stock repurchase program for up to approximately 5% of its outstanding common stock or 94,000 shares of its common stock. Under its initial stock repurchase plan, the Company repurchased 98,946 shares, or approximately 5.0%, of its then outstanding common stock. The shares were repurchased by the Company at an average price of approximately $9.80 per share.
Shares may be repurchased in the open market or private transactions, through block trades, or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The repurchase program has no expiration date.
Repurchases will be made at management's discretion at prices management considers to be attractive and in the best interests of both Seneca Financial and its stockholders, subject to the availability of stock, general market conditions, the trading price of the stock, alternative uses for capital, and Seneca Financial's financial performance. Open market purchases may be subject to the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable legal requirements.
The timing and amount of share repurchases under this authorization may be suspended, terminated, or modified by Seneca Financial at any time for any reason, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, and the availability of alternative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors deemed appropriate. These factors may also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases. Seneca Financial is not obligated to repurchase any particular number of shares or any shares in any specific time period.
