The Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of an additional 100,000 shares of the company’s common stock. This decision follows the completion of Kewaunee’s acquisition of Nu Aire, Inc., which was finalized on November 1, 2024. The company had previously paused its share repurchase activities to focus on this acquisition but resumed buying back shares on February 28, 2025. The management will determine the timing and volume of repurchases based on various factors, including business capital needs and market conditions. The repurchase program is part of Kewaunee’s capital allocation strategy, aiming to create shareholder value. This development comes as Kewaunee continues to broaden its product offerings with the recent addition of biological safety cabinets and other laboratory equipment through the acquisition of Nu Aire.
