Item 8.01 Other Events
On November 15, 2024, Curtiss-Wright Corporation (the "Company") adopted two written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company implemented these written trading plans in connection with its previously announced share repurchase programs, under which the total amount available for repurchases under current authorizations is $300 million.
The first trading plan will include purchases in the total amount of $60 million executed equally over the course of calendar year 2025. This written trading plan will take effect on January 2, 2025 and will cease on December 31, 2025.
The second trading plan includes potential purchases in the total amount of $100 million. The Company cannot predict when or if it will purchase any shares of common stock as such plan includes a price limit where the Company would not buy shares under the Rule 10b5-1 plan. This written trading plan will take effect on January 2, 2025 and will cease on December 31, 2025.
Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows a company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading blackout periods or pursuant to insider trading laws. A broker selected by the Company will have the authority under the terms and limitations specified in the plan to repurchase shares on the Company's behalf in accordance with the terms of the plan. After the expiration of the current trading plans, the Company may from time to time enter subsequent trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 to facilitate the repurchase of its common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program.
Information regarding share repurchases will be available in the Company's periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.
This report contains forward-looking information, as that term is defined under the Exchange Act, including information regarding purchases by the Company of its common stock pursuant to a 10b5-1 trading plan. By their nature, forward-looking information and statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and contingencies, including changes in price and volume and the volatility of the Company's common stock; adverse developments affecting either or both of prices and trading of exchange-traded securities, including securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange; and unexpected or otherwise unplanned or alternative requirements with respect to the capital investments of the Company. The Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 20, 2024, as well as our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter, includes information regarding other risk factors and cautionary information. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements or information, including those contained in this report.
