Insights

Riskified expands discretionary buyback capacity by $75 million.

Riskified has increased its share repurchase authorization by $75 million, on top of prior authorizations of $375 million, of which $344.4 million was already utilized as of June 4, 2026. Repurchases will be funded from existing cash and cash equivalents.

The program is discretionary: management can repurchase shares in the open market, via Rule 10b5-1 plans or privately negotiated transactions, but has no obligation to complete the full amount. Actual impact will depend on execution pace, market conditions and management’s view of intrinsic value.

The authorization is also contingent on completing required Israeli regulatory procedures, and creditors have a 30-day window to object to the distribution under local regulations. Future company disclosures may clarify the realized repurchase amounts and timing as the program progresses.

share repurchase program financial
"approved a “distribution” ... by way of a share repurchase program"
A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.
Rule 10b5-1 regulatory
"including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1"
Rule 10b5-1 is a regulation that allows company insiders to buy or sell their shares at predetermined times, even if they have access to non-public information. It acts like setting a schedule in advance for transactions, helping prevent accusations of unfair trading. This rule provides a way for insiders to plan trades transparently, giving investors confidence that these transactions are not based on hidden information.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

Authorization to Repurchase Ordinary Shares.

On June 4, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a “distribution”, as defined in the Israeli Companies Law, 1999 (the “Companies Law”), by way of a share repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company may repurchase (buyback) an aggregate amount of up to $75 million of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares (the “Distribution”), subject to the completion of required Israeli regulatory procedures. The Distribution and the repurchases are in addition to the Company’s existing $375 million share repurchase authorizations in the aggregate, of which approximately $344.4 million had been utilized as of June 4, 2026.

According to Section 7C.(C) of the Companies Regulations (Relief for Companies Whose Securities Are Listed for Trading on Foreign Stock Exchanges) 2000, the Company’s creditors may apply to the Company and object to the Distribution, within 30 days following its publication.

Any share repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws. The Company may repurchase all or a portion of the authorized amount. Following, and subject to, completion of the required Israeli regulatory procedures, the timing, as well as the number and value of any shares repurchased under the program, will be determined by the Company at its discretion under the Board authorized program and will depend on a variety of factors, including management’s assessment of the intrinsic value of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, the market price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, alternative investment opportunities, and applicable legal requirements. The Distribution does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of Class A ordinary shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The share repurchases will be funded from existing cash and cash equivalents. This notice is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
