On April 30, 2024, Arrow Financial Corporation (the "Company") issued a press release containing unaudited financial information and accompanying discussion for the quarter and year-to-date period ended March 31, 2024. A copy of this press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report on Form 8-K.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 30, 2024, the Company made available certain presentation material (the "First Quarter 2024 Investor Presentation"), which includes among other things, a review of financial results and trends through the period ended March 31, 2024. The furnished First Quarter 2024 Investor Presentation should be read in conjunction with our Earnings Release for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
A copy of the presentation material is included as Exhibit 99.2 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information furnished under this Report, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or subject to the liabilities of that section. The information shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Company, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On April 24, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per share payable May 24, 2024 to shareholders of record on May 13, 2024.
Additionally on April 24, 2024, the Board approved a new stock repurchase program, under which the Board authorized management, in its discretion, to repurchase from time to time, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, up to $5 million of Arrow common stock. This approval follows the Company’s full utilization of the prior $9.1 million stock repurchase program.
As previously disclosed in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed on April 25, 2024, on April 22, 2024, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle the previously disclosed a class action complaint against the Company filed on June 23, 2023 by Robert C. Ashe in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York, subject to final documentation and court approval. Management believes that the settlement will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial results.
