PCB Bancorp (the "Company") (NASDAQ:PCB), the holding company of PCB Bank, announced that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to 700,000 shares of its common stock. Under the share repurchase program, the Company may purchase shares of its common stock through various means such as open market transactions, including block purchases, and privately negotiated transactions. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined at the Company’s discretion. Factors include, but are not limited to, stock price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with the Company’s general business conditions. The repurchase program is authorized through September 22, 2027, although it may be modified, discontinued, or suspended at any time without prior notice.

As part of the share repurchase program, the Company intends to enter into a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. The 10b5-1 trading plan would permit common stock to be repurchased at a time that the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws or self-imposed trading restrictions. The 10b5-1 trading plan will be administered by an independent broker and will be subject to price, market volume and timing restrictions.
