Thomson Reuters Announces $1.0 Billion Share Repurchase Program

Thomson Reuters Announces $1.0 Billion Share Repurchase Program

Yahoo2 days ago
TORONTO, Aug. 15, 2025 /CNW/ -- Thomson Reuters (TSX/Nasdaq: TRI), a global content and technology company, today announced that it plans to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of its shares. Purchases of shares will occur under a new normal course issuer bid (NCIB) that has been approved by the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).
Under the new NCIB, up to 10 million common shares (which represents approximately 2.22% of the company's issued and outstanding common shares as of August 12, 2025) may be repurchased between August 19, 2025 and August 18, 2026.
Under the NCIB, shares may be repurchased in open market transactions on the TSX, the Nasdaq Global Select Market (Nasdaq) and/or other exchanges and alternative trading systems, if eligible, or by such other means as may be permitted by the TSX and/or Nasdaq or under applicable law, including private agreement purchases or share purchase program agreement purchases if Thomson Reuters receives, if applicable, an issuer bid exemption order in the future from applicable securities regulatory authorities in Canada for such purchases. The price that Thomson Reuters will pay for common shares in open market transactions will be the market price at the time of purchase or such other price as may be permitted by the TSX. Any private agreement purchases made under an exemption order, if applicable, may be at a discount to the prevailing market price. In accordance with TSX rules, any daily repurchases (other than pursuant to a block purchase exception) on the TSX under the renewed NCIB are limited to a maximum of 91,026 shares, which represents 25% of the average daily trading volume on the TSX of 364,105 for the six months ended July 31, 2025. Any shares that are repurchased are cancelled.
From time to time when Thomson Reuters does not possess material nonpublic information about itself or its securities, it may enter into a pre-defined plan with its broker to allow for the repurchase of shares at times when Thomson Reuters ordinarily would not be active in the market due to its own internal trading blackout periods, insider trading rules or otherwise. Any such plans entered into with Thomson Reuters' broker will be adopted in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws and the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Thomson Reuters has historically maintained a disciplined capital strategy that balances growth, long-term financial leverage, credit ratings and returns to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. The NCIB provides the company with a flexible way to provide returns to shareholders who choose to participate by selling their shares.
Decisions regarding any future repurchases will depend on certain factors, such as market conditions, share price and other opportunities to invest capital for growth. Thomson Reuters may elect to suspend or discontinue share repurchases at any time, in accordance with applicable laws.

White House Reportedly Launches A Scorecard Rating 500+ Companies On Trump Loyalty — Who's Listed And How Ratings Are Determined

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. The White House has reportedly created a rating system to evaluate the support of corporate America for President Donald Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' and other policies. White House Rates 553 firms on support for Trump policies The White House has developed a scorecard evaluating 553 companies and trade associations on their support for the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' and other Trump policies. Distributed among senior staff, the ratings will serve as a reference when reviewing corporate requests, according to Axios. The rating system evaluates multiple factors, including social media activity, press releases, video testimonials, advertisements, participation in White House events, and other forms of engagement connected to the OB3. Based on these criteria, companies are classified as strong, moderate, or low supporters. Trending: The same firms that backed Uber, Venmo and eBay are investing in this pre-IPO company disrupting a $1.8T market — The system is also expected to evolve as it will include the companies' engagement with other presidential initiatives. The official responsible for the rating system stated, 'If groups/companies want to start advocating more now for the tax bill or additional administration priorities, we will take that into account in our grading.' White House Lists Major Companies as Key Supporters of Bill, Other Trump Initiatives Some of the companies that have been identified as 'good partners' by the White House include Uber (NYSE:UBER), DoorDash (NYSE:DASH), United (NASDAQ:UAL), Delta (NYSE:DAL), AT&T (NYSE:T), Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO), Airlines for America, and the Steel Manufacturers Association. The support from these corporations has been evident in various ways. DoorDash deliverer Maliki Krieski, for instance, publicly supported the bill at a White House event. Uber celebrated the 'No Tax on Tips' provision, a part of the bill, on a blog for drivers. Cisco's CEO, Chuck Robbins, expressed his approval of the corporate tax provisions in the bill on social media. AT&T announced plans to expedite fiber infrastructure development, attributing it to the Show Growing Support For Trump's Key Economic Policies In the recent past, several CEOs have openly supported Trump's policies and initiatives, whether it's related to tariffs, manufacturing in the U.S., or the spending bill. For instance, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) CEO Tim Cook presented Trump with a 24-karat gold-based plaque after securing an exemption from a 100% chip tariff. Similarly, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang hailed Trump's efforts to re-industrialize technology manufacturing, stating that it was the right move for the nation. At the same time, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had a change of heart on Trump. He later admitted that his perspective on the President had evolved after observing him more closely. These examples illustrate the impact of corporate support on the Trump administration's policies.

What's Driving the Wild Swings in Tilray Stock (TLRY)?

Shares of Tilray Brands (TLRY) kicked off last week on a positive note after President Donald Trump said he is considering a proposal to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug. Nonetheless, the stock ended the week with a 10.5% drop on Friday. Overall, TLRY stock has gained nearly 35% over the past five trading days, though it remains down more than 30% year-to-date.

For context, Tilray Brands produces and distributes cannabis, hemp-based foods, and alcoholic beverages across multiple markets. What's Behind TLRY's Moves? Speaking to reporters in the White House briefing room, Trump said the review of marijuana's classification is in progress, and a decision could come within the next few weeks. He added that he hopes the decision 'will be the right one.' The proposed change would move marijuana to Schedule III, which is a category for drugs with accepted medical uses and lower abuse potential. Right now, U.S. law classifies cannabis as a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act, putting it in the same category as highly dangerous drugs like heroin. Nonetheless, the proposal is currently under review by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Separately, Tilray confirmed it is seeking an extension from Nasdaq to regain listing compliance. This disclosure has likely fueled volatility and contributed to the price reversal on Friday. What Does It Mean for TLRY? If marijuana is reclassified as less dangerous, it could lift TLRY stock by easing rules for cannabis companies in the U.S. Such a change would ease restrictions, expand medical and commercial opportunities, and attract more investors. Overall, TLRY stock has remained volatile in the past year. However, a move of this size is rare even for Tilray, suggesting the news had a major impact on how the market views the company. Is TLRY a Good Buy? TLRY stock based on two Buys and four Holds assigned in the past three months. Furthermore, the average Tilray stock price target of $0.94 per share implies a downside of over 10% from the current level.
