On January 17, 2024, the Board of Directors of Blackbaud, Inc. (the “Company”) reauthorized, expanded and replenished the Company’s existing stock repurchase program. The expansion raised the total capacity under the Company's stock repurchase program from $250 million to $500 million available for repurchases. The program does not have an expiration date.

During December 2023 and January 2024, prior to the replenishment on January 17, 2024, the Company repurchased $41.1 million of its stock under the stock repurchase program. Between January 18, 2024 and January 19, 2024, the Company repurchased $0.6 million. As of January 19, 2024, the remaining amount available to purchase stock under the Company's repurchase program was $499.4 million. All of the Company's stock repurchases during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024 were made pursuant to an SEC Rule 10b5-1(c) trading arrangement.

Repurchases by the Company will be subject to available liquidity, general market and economic conditions, alternate uses for the capital and other factors. Stock repurchases may be made from time to time in open market transactions, in private transactions or otherwise in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations and other legal requirements, including compliance with the Company’s finance agreements. There is no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. All shares purchased will be held in the Company’s treasury for possible future use. The Company anticipates funding any stock repurchases from its cash flow from operations.
