TFI International Announces Renewal of Normal Course Issuer Bid
09 Oktober 2020 - 2:00PM
TFI International Inc. (NYSE and TSX: TFII), a North American
leader in the transportation and logistics industry, today
announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) has approved the
renewal of TFI International’s normal course issuer bid
(“NCIB”). Under the NCIB, as renewed, TFI International may
purchase for cancellation a maximum of 7,000,000 common
shares, representing 7.92% of the 88,331,725 shares forming
TFI International’s public float. The shares may be purchased
through the facilities of the TSX and on alternative trading
systems in Canada over the twelve-month period from
October 14, 2020 to October 13, 2021. As of
September 30, 2020, TFI International had
93,362,475 common shares issued and outstanding.
Under its previous NCIB, which entered into
effect on October 2, 2019 and expired on October 1, 2020,
TFI International was authorized to purchase up to
7,000,000 shares. As of October 1, 2020, TFI
International had repurchased 2,221,255 common shares at a
volume weighted average purchase price of CAD $36.44 per
share, through the facilities of the TSX and on alternative trading
systems in Canada. All of the repurchased shares were cancelled by
TFI International.
Any shares purchased by TFI International under
the renewed NCIB will be at the market price of the shares at the
time of such purchases. The actual number of shares that may be
purchased and the timing of any such purchases will be determined
by TFI International. Any purchases made by TFI International
pursuant to the renewed NCIB will be made in accordance with the
rules and policies of the TSX.
During the most recently-completed six months,
the average daily trading volume for the common shares of
TFI International on the TSX was 344,565 shares.
Consequently, under the policies of the TSX, TFI International
will have the right to repurchase during any one trading day a
maximum of 86,141 shares, representing 25% of the average
daily trading volume. In addition, TFI International may make,
once per calendar week, a block purchase (as such term is defined
in the TSX Company Manual) of shares not directly or
indirectly owned by insiders of TFI International, in accordance
with the policies of the TSX.
The Board of Directors of TFI International
believes that, at appropriate times, repurchasing its shares
through the NCIB represents a good use of TFI International’s
financial resources, as such action can protect and enhance
shareholder value when opportunities arise.
To the knowledge of TFI International, no
director or senior officer, including the CEO, and no person acting
jointly or in concert with TFI International currently intends
to sell shares during the renewed NCIB. However, sales by such
persons through the facilities of the TSX may occur if any such
person makes a decision unrelated to the NCIB. The benefits to any
such person whose shares are purchased would be the same as the
benefits available to all other shareholders whose shares are
purchased under the NCIB.
In connection with the renewed NCIB,
TFI International has entered into an automatic share purchase
plan with RBC Dominion Securities Inc. in order to allow for
purchases under the NCIB during TFI International’s
“black-out” periods, as permitted by the TSX Company Manual and the
Securities Act (Québec).
