Alerus Financial Corporation Declares Dividend and Announces Stock Repurchase Program

Alerus Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: ALRS) announced that its board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share. The dividend is payable on April 9, 2021, to shareholders of record as of close of business on March 19, 2021.

The Company also announced that its board of directors approved a stock repurchase program (the “Program”) which authorizes the Company to repurchase up to 770,000 shares of its common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions. The Program is effective immediately and will continue for a period ending on February 18, 2024. The Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any shares of its common stock and there is no assurance that the Company will do so. Based on market conditions, repurchases will generally be made from time to time in the open market.

“We believe the stock repurchase program will allow us to effectively manage capital while also enhancing shareholder value,” said Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer Randy Newman.

Current and historic dividend information, as well as quarterly financial statements, investor presentations, and earnings call transcripts are available online through Alerus’ investor relations website at investors.alerus.com.
