Türkiye’s leading mobility super app Marti Technologies, Inc.
(“Marti” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: MRT) today announced a
share repurchase program.
The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) today authorized
a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase
up to $2.5 million of its outstanding Class A ordinary shares,
representing approximately 7.9% of the Company’s market
capitalization as of January 9, 2024 with a closing price of
$0.6510. The repurchase program is effective immediately and is
valid for a period of six months from such date (the “Repurchase
Program”). Under the Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase
Class A ordinary shares in privately negotiated or open-market
transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws and
regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended. The Board may periodically review the
Company’s Repurchase Program and decide to extend its terms or
increase the authorized amount. The Repurchase Program may also be
suspended or discontinued by the Board at any time.
The Repurchase Program is being financed from the proceeds of a
$5.0 million convertible note investment made by Farragut Square
Global Master Fund. The convertible note carries an exercise price
of $1.65 per share. The remaining proceeds of the convertible note
which are not applied towards the Repurchase Program will be used
for general corporate purposes, including to further accelerate the
growth of Marti’s ride-hailing service.
Alper Oktem, Marti’s Founder and CEO, said: “Following our
strong performance and the growth of our ride-hailing business,
this Repurchase Program demonstrates our Board’s belief in the
value of our shares. As the Repurchase Program will be financed by
the $5.0 million transaction of convertible notes, we believe that
it will create immediate value for our shareholders. Furthermore,
the unused portion of the proceeds from convertible note
transaction will enable us to invest in our business and increase
the pace of growth in our ride-hailing service, which we believe
will create longer term value for our shareholders.”
The specific timing and amount of repurchases will be at the
discretion of the Company’s management team, and will depend on a
variety of factors, including its assessment of the intrinsic value
of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, the market price of the
Company’s Class A ordinary shares, general market and economic
conditions, available liquidity, compliance with the Company’s debt
and other agreements, applicable legal, regulatory and contractual
restrictions and the Company’s capital and business strategy.
