CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRWD) today announced that CrowdStrike's Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $500 million of CrowdStrike's Class A common stock to its existing stock repurchase program, bringing the total authorization under the program to $1.5 billion.
Under its existing share repurchase program, CrowdStrike has repurchased 413,130 shares of its outstanding Class A common stock at an average price of $364.57 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $150.6 million.
"We repurchased $150.6 million of shares following our record Q4 FY26, as we see a growing disconnect between our improving momentum fueled by AI tailwinds and our current valuation," said Burt Podbere, CrowdStrike's CFO. "We have increased our share repurchase authorization to $1.5 billion to opportunistically return value to shareholders as we progress toward our goal of reaching $20 billion in ending ARR by FY36."
The share repurchase program does not have a fixed expiration date and does not obligate CrowdStrike to acquire any specific number of shares. Repurchases may be made from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and other means. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by CrowdStrike in its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price and economic and market conditions. CrowdStrike currently expects to use the share repurchase program opportunistically depending on the market price of the common stock and other factors, and there can be no assurance that any shares will be repurchased under the share repurchase program.
