Eagle Point Launches $50 Million Common Stock Repurchase Program
Eagle Point Income Company is putting capital to work where it counts. On June 9, the company announced that its board has approved a common stock repurchase program, authorizing up to $50 million in buybacks. The goal: to support the share price and deliver value to shareholders by stepping in when the market undervalues the stock.
This new authorization gives Eagle Point the flexibility to buy back shares at times and prices it sees fit. Whether through opportunistic purchases or ongoing repurchase activity, the company now has a tool to act when it believes the share price doesn’t reflect the fundamentals. It’s a signal that management is focused on capital efficiency and shareholder alignment.
Optimizing Capital Allocation
The repurchase program is part of a broader strategy to manage the company’s capital structure. Eagle Point has multiple series of preferred stock listed on the NYSE, and the addition of this buyback program gives it another lever to adjust equity levels and optimize returns. By reducing the number of shares outstanding, the company can potentially lift earnings per share and net asset value per share—two metrics that matter to investors tracking long-term performance.
Details on timing and execution weren’t disclosed, and there’s no requirement to buy back a specific number of shares. That flexibility is by design. The company can adjust activity based on what’s happening in the market and where it sees the best opportunities.
A Tactical Tool in a Shifting Market
Eagle Point continues to focus on generating income through its investment strategy, and this move reinforces that the firm is also thinking carefully about how it returns capital. When market conditions shift, having a buyback in place gives the company a way to respond—quickly, and on its terms.
