A disciplined approach to capital management
These piecemeal movements all indicate that Magellan is the home of exacting discipline. The filings that are registered every period specify the exact number of shares bought, the exact cash paid, and the price ranges.
This binding level of transparency is the foundation for markets’ trust. The buy-back is enormous insofar as it is for 20,000,000 shares.
With 5,904,682 shares remaining authorised, investors will presumably be kept apprised. The program itself is another testimony of Magellan’s continuing commitment to shareholder value.
