Announces New $15 Million Share Repurchase Plan

Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or the “Company”) today reported assets under management (AUM) of $157.1 billion as of April 30, 2021.

“In late April, we commenced an institutional mandate transition with an existing institutional client that resulted in positive long-term net flows,” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The transition entailed terminating a former mandate during the final week in April, which was subsequently replaced by a larger mandate, from the same client, during the first part of May. As a result, only the termination is reflected in April month-end AUM and the new larger mandate, which we are currently managing, will be reflected in our May AUM disclosure. To date, we remain long-term net flow positive for the second quarter, and are optimistic about the improving momentum in our net flows.”

New $15 Million Share Repurchase Plan

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors approved a new common stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $15 million of its Class A Common Stock through December 31, 2022.

“Given our robust financial condition, we have been balancing the return of capital to shareholders through share repurchases and cash dividends,” Brown added. “Our capital allocation strategy remains unchanged with the majority of excess cash flow being allocated to debt reduction.”

The Company’s prior $15 million stock repurchase authorization, initiated in November 2020, has been completed. Under the new program, the Company may purchase its shares from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of the Company's shares, trading volume, capital availability, Company performance and general economic and market conditions. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
