Azenta Authorizes $250 Million Share Repurchase Program

BURLINGTON, Mass., December 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --Azenta, Inc. (Nasdaq: AZTA) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program under which the company may repurchase up to $250 million of its outstanding common stock. The Repurchase Program is intended to enhance shareholder value and capitalize on undervaluation. Repurchases may be made from time to time through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, or by other methods compliant with Rules 10b-18 and 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, subject to market and business conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors.

This authorization does not obligate Azenta to repurchase any specific dollar amount or number of shares, and repurchases may be commenced, suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The Repurchase Program commenced on December 9, 2025, and continues until December 31, 2028, unless extended or terminated earlier by the Board.

"Our capital allocation strategy is grounded in four key levers - driving productivity and gross margin improvement, accelerating organic growth, pursuing strategic M&A with discipline, and returning capital to shareholders through share repurchases," said John Marotta, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The share repurchase authorization reflects our deliberate use of these levers to enhance long-term shareholder value while maintaining strategic flexibility to invest in growth."
