Fortinet Approves $1B Expansion to Share-Repurchase Plan

Dow Jones

Aug 22

By Connor Hart

Fortinet's board approved a $1 billion increase to the company's share-repurchase plan, along with a one-year extension through Feb. 28, 2027.

The cybersecurity company said Friday that the expansion brings its total repurchase authorization to $9.25 billion, of which approximately $1.23 billion remains available.

The buybacks are allowed to happen through open-market purchases or privately negotiated deals, Fortinet said. It noted that it has no obligation to repurchase shares and can suspend or discontinue the program at any time.
