Item 8.01 Other Events.
On January 31, 2023, the board of directors of PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. (the
"Company") authorized a share repurchase program to repurchase up to $10 million
of the Company's outstanding common stock (the "New Program"). The New Program
is effective immediately for a two-year period. The Company expects to fund the
program with its available cash. The Company enacted a similar program in June
2022 (the "Existing Program"), and as of the date hereof, the Company has
repurchased 3,410,624 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $9.3 million under the Existing Program.
Under the New Program, the shares may be repurchased from time to time in open
market transactions, privately negotiated block transactions, or other means in
accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing of the purchases, the
number of shares repurchased, and the prices paid for the shares under the New
Program will depend on general business and market conditions, the trading price
of the Company's common stock and corporate and regulatory limitations,
including blackout period restrictions. The New Program does not obligate the
Company to acquire a specific dollar amount or number of shares and may be
extended, modified, or discontinued at any time.
On February 2, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the
authorization of the New Program. A copy of the press release is furnished as
Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
