Press Releases

NORCROSS, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 3, 2017-- FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:FLT), a leading global provider of commercial payment solutions , announced today that its board of directors has authorized an increase in the size of the Company’s previously announced share repurchase program by an additional $250 million and an extension of the program by an additional 18 months. With the increase, and giving effect to the Company’s $240 million of previous repurchases, the Company may repurchase up to $510 million in shares of its common stock at any time prior to February 1, 2019.

FLEETCOR also announced that as part of this repurchase program it has entered into an Accelerated Share Repurchase (“ASR”) program with Bank of America, N.A. to repurchase $250 million of common stock. The Company expects to fund the repurchase with a combination of debt and cash. Approximately 85 percent of the shares expected to be repurchased under the transaction will be received by FLEETCOR on August 8, 2017. The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the program will be determined upon final settlement and will be based on a discount to the volume-weighted average price of FLEETCOR’s common stock during the ASR period. FLEETCOR anticipates that all repurchases under the ASR will be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2017.
