First Northern Community Bancorp Announces Stock Repurchase Program

The Board of Directors of First Northern Community Bancorp (FNRN), holding company of First Northern Bank, has announced a stock repurchase program for the Company’s outstanding common stock. Based on market conditions, share repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program will begin June 15, 2021 and will remain in effect until June 14, 2023. The program allows repurchases in an aggregate amount of no more than 4% of First Northern Community Bancorp’s 13,680,085 outstanding shares of common stock as of March 31, 2021. This represents total shares of 547,203 eligible for repurchase which, at the closing price of $11.35 on June 2, 2021, would equate to total consideration of approximately $6.2M if all eligible shares were repurchased. The Board of Directors has determined that the maximum aggregate repurchases will not impair the capital of the Corporation. Any repurchases are intended to be conducted in accordance with the limitations, guidelines, and restrictions relative to timing, price, manner, and volume of Rule 10b-18 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The stock repurchase program is intended to provide management with an effective mechanism for capital management, increase return on equity to our existing shareholders and provide additional market liquidity for our common shares outstanding. Commenting on the stock repurchase program, Louise Walker, President & Chief Executive Officer said, “The Bancorp’s stock repurchase program demonstrates our ongoing commitment to providing fundamental value for our shareholders.”
