share repurchase authorizationfinancial
A share repurchase authorization is a company's official approval to buy back its own shares from the market. This signals that the company believes its stock is a good investment and can help increase the value of remaining shares by reducing how many are available. For investors, it often suggests confidence from the company and can influence the stock’s price.
forward-looking statementsregulatory
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
section 21e of the securities exchange act of 1934regulatory
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 creates a legal safe harbor for forward-looking statements — projections, plans, estimates or predictions — made by public companies, provided those statements are identified as forward-looking and accompanied by meaningful cautionary language about risks and uncertainties. For investors, it matters because it helps distinguish promotional predictions from factual disclosures and signals which optimistic forecasts carry legal protection and which risks the company has warned could affect outcomes, like a weather forecast that comes with a disclaimer about changing conditions.
tariffsregulatory
Tariffs are taxes imposed by a government on goods imported from other countries. They increase the cost of those goods, which can lead to higher prices for consumers and impact international trade. For investors, tariffs matter because they can influence the profitability of companies, affect supply chains, and shift economic stability across different regions.
environmental, social and governance ("esg")technical
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) refers to non-financial factors used to assess a company's impact and management: environmental means how it handles pollution, waste and resource use; social covers treatment of workers, customers and communities; governance relates to leadership, board behavior, transparency and controls. Investors use ESG like a durability checklist—strong ESG performance can mean fewer regulatory, legal and reputational shocks and more stable long-term returns, while poor ESG practices can signal hidden risks.
form 10-kregulatory
A Form 10-K is a comprehensive report that publicly traded companies are required to file annually with regulators. It provides a detailed overview of a company's financial health, operations, and risks, similar to a detailed health report. Investors use this information to assess the company's performance and make informed decisions about buying or selling its stock.
form 10-qregulatory
A Form 10-Q is a detailed report that publicly traded companies are required to file with regulators three times a year, providing an update on their financial health and business activities. It is important for investors because it offers timely insights into a company's performance, helping them make informed decisions about buying or selling stocks. Think of it as a regular check-up report that shows how well a company is doing.
Increased Authorization After Repurchasing Over Three Million Shares in Fourth Quarter 2025
BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
TriMas (NASDAQ: TRS) today announced that its Board of Directors has increased the Company’s common stock share repurchase authorization to a total of up to $150 million, adding to the $48.9 million remaining under the previous authorization.
During 2025, TriMas repurchased 3,124,866 shares of its outstanding common stock for $103.3 million, with more than three million shares repurchased since the announcement of the Aerospace divestiture. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 37.6 million shares outstanding.
“Increasing our share repurchase authorization to $150 million reflects our confidence in TriMas’ long‑term value,” said Thomas Snyder, TriMas President and Chief Executive Officer. “As we continue to focus our portfolio and deploy capital with discipline, this expanded authorization provides additional flexibility to repurchase shares as we advance our strategic priorities and complete the pending divestiture.”
The extent to which TriMas repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions, share price, regulatory requirements, other available uses of capital and other corporate considerations. The share repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
