Triumph Group Announces Five Million Share Repurchase Program

Triumph Group, Inc. (NYSE:TGI) today announced that the Board of Directors authorized a new 5,000,000 share repurchase program. The company expects to use the new program to repurchase outstanding shares of its common stock, subject to market conditions. The company also has 500,200 shares remaining on its prior February 2008 authorization, bringing the total amount authorized for repurchases to 5,500,200 shares. Under the program, the company may repurchase shares from time to time for cash in open market transactions or by other means in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The company currently has approximately 52.5 million shares of common stock outstanding.

Jeffry D. Frisby, Triumph’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We believe that proper capital allocation is essential to meeting our long term strategic goals. Although our focus will remain strategic acquisitions and key program investments that will allow us to grow our company while maintaining a strong balance sheet, this authorization will enable us to take opportunities when the time is right to appropriately return capital to our shareholders.”
