Item 8.01. Other Events

 

On December 11, 2017, the Board of Directors of JMP Group LLC (the “Company”) approved the repurchase of up to one million shares of the Company’s outstanding common shares during 2018. Under the repurchase program, the Company may purchase its common shares from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The timing, volume and nature of any common share repurchases will be at the sole discretion of management, will be dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

 

As of the close of the market on December 12, 2017, 631,844 of the Company’s common shares were eligible for repurchase through year-end under the board’s previous authorization. After December 31, 2017, any shares not repurchased under that authorization will no longer be eligible for repurchase, and the new, 2018 authorization announced herein will take effect.
