Silicon Image announced that its Board has authorized the repurchase of its common stock to an aggregate purchase of $50 million. The repurchases may occur from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions; provided that the repurchases are made in accordance with the terms of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and amount of any repurchase of shares will be determined by the company, based on its evaluation of market conditions, cash on hand and other factors, and may be made under a plan that complies with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
"We believe it is the right time to initiate a share repurchase plan and opportunistically repurchase shares to partially offset dilution. Further, it demonstrates our commitment to our shareholders and our confidence in our business going forward," said Mr. Martino.
The authorization will stay in effect until the authorized aggregate amount is expended or the authorization is modified by the Board of Directors. The program does not obligate the company to acquire any particular amount of stock and purchases under the program may be commenced or suspended at any time, or from time to time, without prior notice.
