HAMILTON BEACH BRANDS HOLDING COMPANY DECLARES QUARTERLY DIVIDEND AND ANNOUNCES STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

GLEN ALLEN, Va., Feb. 22, 2022

The Board of Directors also approved a stock repurchase program providing for the purchase of up to $25 million of the Company's outstanding Class A Common Stock effective immediately and running through December 31, 2023. The Company's previously authorized share buyback program was approved by the Board of Directors in November 2019 for the purchase of up to $25 million of the Company's outstanding Class A common stock through December 31, 2021. Under the Company's previously authorized share buyback programs, the Company has repurchased a total of 364,893 shares for a total aggregate purchase price of $6 million.

The timing and amount of any repurchases under the new repurchase program will be determined at the discretion of the Company's management based on a number of factors, including the availability of capital, other capital allocation alternatives and market conditions for the Company's Class A common stock. The share repurchase program does not require the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. It may be modified, suspended, extended, or terminated by the Company at any time without prior notice and may be executed through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. All or part of the repurchases may be implemented under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, which would allow repurchases under pre-set terms at times when the Company might otherwise be prevented from doing so.
