Item 2.02 – Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 22, 2012, IDEX Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing financial results for the period ended September 30, 2012.
A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information in this Current Report furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 8.01 – Other Events.
On October 22, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $200 million of IDEX’s outstanding common shares. The increased repurchase authorization, when added to the approximately $50 million that remains available from the existing authorization approved by the Board of Directors in December 2011, provides the Company with a total authorized repurchase availability of $250 million.
The repurchases will be made from time to time in either open market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases may also be made under 10b5-1 plans, which would permit shares to be repurchased through pre-determined criteria when the Company would otherwise be prohibited from doing so under insider trading laws. The timing, volume and nature of share repurchases will be at the discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, other priorities of cash investment, applicable securities laws and other factors. This share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and it may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
