Triton International Announces Expansion of Share Repurchase Authorization
December 8, 2022 – Triton International Limited (NYSE: TRTN) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved an increase in the size of the company’s existing share repurchase authorization to $400 million.
Brian M. Sondey, Triton’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Triton’s share repurchases have been an important driver of shareholder value this year. Year to date, we have purchased almost 8.5 million shares for $514 million, reducing our share count by approximately 13%. Our Board of Directors has typically authorized up to $200 million of repurchases, but given our pace of repurchases this year, this has resulted in several quarterly reauthorizations. The increased authorization will provide enhanced flexibility to execute our program, and it also reflects the strength of our balance sheet, robust cash flows and our continued confidence that Triton’s financial performance will remain strong.”
Triton expects to continue to rely primarily on cash generated from operations to fund its share repurchases. The timing and amount of share repurchases and the number of shares to be repurchased will depend upon market conditions and other factors. Share repurchases may be executed through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, in privately negotiated transactions or through a combination of methods. Triton’s share buyback program includes common and preference shares. The program has no termination date, does not obligate Triton to repurchase any particular number of shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time.
