Calavo Growers' board of directors approved a $25 million share-repurchase program.
The avocado distributor on Tuesday said the buybacks may occur through open-market transactions, privately negotiated deals or trading plans. The program is set to expire in two years, unless extended or terminated earlier by the board.
Chief Executive Lee Cole said the program underscores the company's confidence in its long-term strategy and financial position. "This repurchase program demonstrates our commitment to our shareholders while maintaining our flexibility to invest in strategic growth initiatives and operational improvements," he said.
