Item 8.01 Other Events.
On July 22, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company extended the expiration date of the Company’s previously announced stock repurchase program (the “2022 Stock Repurchase Program”) from August 20, 2025 to August 26, 2026. As of July 22, 2025, the Stock Repurchase Program had $13.1 million remaining under its stock repurchase authorization.
Under the 2022 Stock Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time in the open market or privately negotiated transactions. Any open market repurchases will be conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other applicable legal requirements. Repurchases may also be made pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, which would permit shares to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so because of self-imposed trading blackout periods or other regulatory restrictions. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions, regulatory requirements, availability of funds, and other relevant considerations, as determined by the Company. The Company may, in its discretion, begin, suspend or terminate repurchases at any time prior to the 2022 Stock Repurchase Program’s expiration, without any prior notice.
On July 23, 2025, in its 2025 second quarter earnings release, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had declared a quarterly cash dividend on its 5.875% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (“Series A Preferred Stock”). The quarterly cash dividend of $36.72 per share, equivalent to $0.3672 per depository share, each representing a 1/100th interest in a share of the Series A Preferred Stock (Nasdaq: BWBBP), is payable on September 2, 2025, to shareholders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock at the close of business on August 15, 2025.
