Share Repurchase Agreement with ING Group
On March 2, 2015, Voya Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Share Repurchase Agreement (the “Share Repurchase Agreement”) with ING Groep N.V. (“ING Group”), pursuant to which the Company will acquire from ING Group, subject to certain terms and conditions, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate purchase price of $600 million (the “Direct Share Buyback”). Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Agreement, the per share purchase price paid by Voya Financial will be equal to the per share purchase price to be paid by the underwriters in the registered public offering by ING Group of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Public Offering”) described in a preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and dated March 3, 2015.
Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Agreement, the Direct Share Buyback will be subject to a number of conditions, including the successful completion of the Public Offering.
The Company expects to fund the Direct Share Buyback from existing cash on hand.
The Direct Share Buyback is being made pursuant to the Company’s existing authorization to repurchase shares of its common stock. Following the completion of the Direct Share Buyback, the Company expects that the remaining authorization under the Share Repurchase Program would permit future repurchases by the Company of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price of up to approximately $161 million.
The Share Repurchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
