Item 8.01. Other Events
Alico, Inc. (the “Company”) has announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase plan (the “Repurchase Plan”). Under this Repurchase Plan, the Company may repurchase up to $5.0 million of its common stock from March 9, 2017 to March 9, 2019 and repurchases will be made from time to time by the Company in the open market as conditions allow, or in privately negotiated transactions. Up to $2.0 million of the repurchases may be implemented under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, which would allow repurchases under pre-set terms at times when the Company might otherwise be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed blackout periods. Because repurchases under the Repurchase Plan are subject to certain pricing parameters, there is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that will be repurchased under the Repurchase Plan or that there will be any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Plan. Subject to applicable regulations, the Company may elect to amend or cancel the Repurchase Plan at its discretion.
