Clarivate also announced that it prepaid $75 million of term-loan debt so far during the fourth quarter, bringing total prepayments in 2024 to $133 million.
"As we execute against our Value Creation Plan, we expect to deploy capital to the most value enhancing opportunities," said Matti Shem Tov, Chief Executive Officer of Clarivate. "This new repurchase program is in line with this goal and reflects the Clarivate Board's strong confidence in the Company's ability to drive growth and enhanced financial performance. We will continue to maintain a balanced approach to our capital allocation program that includes returning capital to shareholders through repurchases and deleveraging."
The new share repurchase program does not obligate Clarivate to repurchase any set dollar amount or number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time without prior notice. Under the new share repurchase program, Clarivate is authorized to conduct open-market purchases of its ordinary shares from time to time through any method or program, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or the use of other techniques as permitted by its shareholder authorization, approved by the Board or a designated committee thereof, and subject to availability of ordinary shares, price, market conditions, alternative uses of capital, and applicable regulatory requirements, at management's discretion.
