On July 25, 2007 Community Bancorp (the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CBON) announced that its board of directors authorized a stock buyback program to repurchase up to an aggregate of 5% of its issued and outstanding common shares as of June 30, 2007 in the open market effective immediately for a period of twelve months. At current calculations, this repurchase plan would authorize the buyback of approximately 521,000 shares valued at approximately $12.6 million.
Management’s discretion will determine the timing of the stock repurchase transactions and the number of shares repurchased. Consideration will be given to factors including market price of the stock, growth expectations, general economic conditions, established and special trading blackout periods, and other investment opportunities. The repurchase program is intended to be structured to conform to the safe harbor provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
