Kinsale Capital authorizes new $250 million share buyback after $100 million program
Kinsale Capital Group announced that its Board authorized a new share repurchase program of up to $250 million of common stock, following completion of a previously announced $100 million program. The company also amended its note purchase agreement and credit agreement to permit restricted payments, such as share repurchases, as long as no event of default has occurred or would result, which gives the company more flexibility to return capital to stockholders.
