Eco Wave Power Receives Green Light for the Repurchase of its American Depositary Shares
As previously announced, the repurchase of the ADS was previously approved by Eco Wave Power's shareholders at the 2024 Annual General Meeting (the "AGM").
Shareholders at the AGM resolved the authorization for the Company's board of directors to make purchases of the ADS in accordance with the following main terms:
"We are very excited to finally be able to proceed with the buyback. We believe that our ADS buyback program will allow our leadership to have a greater scope to act and have the opportunity to improve the Company's capital structure, driving greater shareholder value and improving the investment value of our company," said Eco Wave Power's Founder and Chief Executive Officer Inna Braverman .
The authorization from the SFSA and shareholder approval from the AGM does not obligate the Company to repurchase any ADSs. Any repurchases will be made through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, or otherwise in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing, manner, and amount of any repurchase will be determined by the Company's management based on its evaluation of business, market, and economic conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations.
