EnerSys (ENS) announced that its Board of Directors has approved a $1 billion increase to its stock repurchase authorization, to be executed over the next five years. This authorization brings the Company’s total outstanding repurchase authorization to an aggregate of $1.06 billion, including $58 million available under the Board’s previous repurchase authorizations. Additionally, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has raised its quarterly cash dividend for the third consecutive year, with an increase of 9% to $0.2625 per share of common stock. The dividend is payable on September 26, 2025, to holders of record as of September 12, 2025. “These announcements highlight EnerSys’ proactive and disciplined approach to capital allocation and our confidence in our long-term strategy,” said Shawn O’Connell, EnerSys President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our earnings growth, strong cash flow, and solid balance sheet enable us to continue investing in long-term growth while returning more capital to shareholders. The increased stock repurchase authorization reflects our belief in the value of the Company and our growth trajectory. At the same time, we are committed to maintaining a competitive dividend that grows with our earnings, excluding the effects of 45X benefits. During this period of macro uncertainty, we intend to keep our leverage below the low end of our target range, retaining a prudent level of dry powder for future capital allocation optionality.”
