Key Terms

10b5-1, 10b-18
2 terms
10b5-1 regulatory
"in accordance with SEC Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 and other applicable"
A 10b5-1 plan is a pre-set schedule that lets company insiders buy or sell shares according to written instructions made when they do not possess material, nonpublic information. Think of it as a timed automatic payment for stock trades: it helps insiders avoid accusations of trading on secret information and gives outside investors a clearer signal about whether sales are routine or potentially informative about the company’s prospects.
10b-18 regulatory
"in accordance with SEC Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 and other applicable"
SEC Rule 10b-18 is a regulatory safe harbor that sets precise limits on how a company may repurchase its own shares on the open market—specifying acceptable timing, maximum daily volume, price conditions and the trading venues—so those buybacks are less likely to be treated as illegal market manipulation. For investors, it acts like traffic rules for buybacks: when a company follows them, repurchases are more predictable and reduce legal and reputational risk, making the likely impact on share supply and price easier to assess.

CHICAGO, June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cosmos Health Inc. ("Cosmos Health" or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:COSM), a diversified, vertically integrated global healthcare group, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $5 million of the Company's common stock.

Cosmos Health may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or through other permitted means in accordance with SEC Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 and other applicable restrictions. The timing and total amount of repurchases will depend on market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices, and other considerations. The repurchase program expires on December 31, 2026, and may be renewed at the Company's sole discretion.

Greg Siokas, CEO of Cosmos Health, stated: "This share repurchase program reflects our confidence in the Company's operating fundamentals and growth prospects. With record revenue, improving margins, and accelerating global momentum — including our expansion into the United States and into new categories such as animal healthcare — we believe our shares are trading at levels that do not reflect the strength of our operating momentum, asset base, and future growth trajectory.

To put things into perspective, a program of this size represents almost half of our market capitalization as of June 29, 2026. We believe that repurchasing shares at current levels represents an attractive opportunity to enhance shareholder value as we continue to execute on our multi-layered growth strategy.”
