On July 24, 2025, AMERISAFE, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) reauthorized the $25.0 million share repurchase program that replaces its prior share repurchase program with no expiration date. As of July 24, 2025, $25.0 million was available for future repurchases of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program.
Share repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase program may be affected from time to time pursuant to trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any shares of the Company’s common stock and may be modified, increased, suspended, or terminated at the discretion of the Board. The Board’s determination will depend on a variety of factors, including but not limited to, market conditions and applicable regulatory considerations. It is anticipated that any future repurchases will be funded from available capital.
