Share Capital
11. Share Capital
The authorized and outstanding share capital of the Company is below.
Class A Common Stock
There are 1.0 billion shares of Class A Common Stock authorized, of which 254.3 million shares were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2025. Each share of Class A Common Stock carries one vote and represents an economic interest in the Company.
Class C Common Stock
On April 4, 2025, Stagwell Media exercised in full its right to exchange all of its 151,648,741 shares of Class C Common Stock for an equal number of newly issued shares of Class A Common Stock. Following the Class C Exchange, the Company no longer has any shares of Class C Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025.
Class A Common Stock Repurchases
The Company may repurchase up to an aggregate of $375 million of shares of our outstanding Class A Common Stock under its stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”). The Repurchase Program will expire on November 6, 2027.
Under the Repurchase Program, share repurchases may be made at our discretion from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, including through trading plans that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, as amended, in privately negotiated transactions, or through other means. The timing and number of shares repurchased under the Repurchase Program will depend on a variety of factors, including the performance of our stock price, general market and economic conditions, regulatory requirements, the availability of funds, and other considerations we deem relevant. The Repurchase Program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Our Board of Directors will review the Repurchase Program periodically and may authorize adjustments of its terms.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 17.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock were repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Program at an average price of $5.12 per share, for an aggregate value, excluding fees, of $90.0 million. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 2.5 million shares were withheld for taxes from the Class A Common Stock vested during the period.
The remaining value of shares of Class A Common Stock permitted to be repurchased under the Repurchase Program was $79.6 million as of September 30, 2025.
