BitNile Holdings Announces Up to $50 Million Stock Repurchase Program

LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$AGH #AmosKohn–BitNile Holdings, Inc (NYSE American: NILE), a diversified holding company (“BitNile” or the “Company”), announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program under which BitNile may repurchase up to $50 million of its outstanding common stock over a three-year period commencing December 15, 2021.

Under the repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares of common stock on a discretionary basis from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market repurchases. The Company intends to enact a trading plan (the “Rule 10b5-1 Plan”) for the repurchases in compliance with the Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable legal requirements. The Rule 10b5-1 Plan will allow the Company to execute trades during periods when it would ordinarily not be permitted to do so because it may be in possession of material non-public information, because of insider trading laws or self-imposed trading blackout periods. Under the Rule 10b5-1 Plan, the executing broker would have the authority, under the prices, terms and limitations set forth in the Rule 10b5-1 Plan, including compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, to repurchase shares on the Company’s behalf.

The timing and number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, the Company’s capital position and general business and market conditions. The Company intends to finance the repurchases from several sources, including excess cash flow from operations, when available, existing cash from the Company’s balance sheet, and proceeds from future borrowing arrangements or financings. The repurchase program is for three years, does not obligate the Company to acquire a specified number of shares and may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.

The Company’s Founder and Executive Chairman, Milton “Todd” Ault, III said, “The Board’s decision to authorize the share repurchase program reflects our strong confidence in the growth prospects of BitNile and our ability to execute on our strategic objectives, which we believe is not reflected at the current market valuation. Our strong balance sheet and expected cash flow generation allow us to return value to shareholders through share repurchases. We are committed to driving long-term shareholder value with a disciplined capital allocation strategy that balances investing in our business for growth and opportunistically leveraging favorable market conditions as they arise.”
