Kontoor Brands announces USD300 Million share repurchase program

“Today’s announcement of a $300 million share repurchase program illustrates our enhanced capital allocation optionality and reflects the strong cash flow generation of our business, while underscoring Kontoor’s unrelenting focus on delivering superior Total Shareholder Return over time,” said Scott Baxter, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chair of Kontoor Brands.

The share repurchase program approved by the Company’s Board of Directors authorizes the repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The timing and amount of repurchases will be determined by the Company based on its evaluation of market conditions, continued compliance with its debt covenants and other factors. The program does not have an expiration date but may be suspended, modified or terminated at any time without prior notice. The Company expects to fund repurchases through cash flow generated from operations.
