Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 15, 2022, ZipRecruiter, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, to repurchase shares of its Class A Common Stock. Under the ASR, the Company will make an initial payment of $50.0 million to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and will receive an initial delivery of approximately 2.6 million shares of its Class A Common Stock on December 16, 2022. The final number of shares to be repurchased is based on the volume-weighted average price of the Class A Common Stock during the term of the ASR, less a discount. The final settlement of the ASR is expected to occur by the first quarter of 2023.
The ASR transaction will be effectuated pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase program, which was initially authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) in February 2022 and increased by the Board in June 2022 and November 2022, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $450.0 million in outstanding shares of its Common Stock. After effectuating the foregoing ASR, the Company will have approximately $110.7 million available for future repurchases pursuant to its share repurchase program.
