PRINCETON, N.J., July 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Mikros Systems Corporation (OTCQB: MKRS), an advanced technology company specializing in electronic systems technology for advanced maintenance in military, industrial and commercial applications, announced today that its board of directors has approved a stock repurchase program that will enable the Company to repurchase up to $250,000 of its common stock through June 30, 2020.  

The share repurchases may occur from time-to-time through open market purchases at prevailing market prices or through privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable  securities laws and other legal requirements. The Company expects to fund all purchases from existing cash balances and future cash flows from operations. The program allows the Company to repurchase shares at its discretion. The timing and extent to which the Company repurchases its shares will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, market conditions, price, trading volume, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities, and other economic conditions.  The program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements, may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. 

President Mark Malone said, “We are pleased to announce that the board has authorized a share repurchase program. We believe this reflects the board’s confidence in Mikros Systems’   financial strength, overall commitment to shareholders, and its long-term corporate strategy.”
