The Toronto Stock Exchange accepted Celestica Inc.’s notice on October 30, 2025, allowing the company to launch a normal course issuer bid that will run from November 3, 2025 to November 2, 2026 or until the program is completed. The bid permits the repurchase of up to 5,722,527 common shares, roughly 5 % of the public float, with a daily limit of 221,734 shares. Funding will come from the company’s cash reserves, credit facilities, or other sources, and all repurchased shares will be cancelled.
Celestica’s Q3 2025 financial results underpin the program. Revenue rose 28 % year‑over‑year to $3.19 billion, and adjusted earnings per share increased 52 % to $1.58. Management highlighted strong demand for AI data‑center infrastructure and a robust outlook for 2026, citing continued growth in its Connectivity & Cloud Solutions segment and a 43 % revenue increase in that business unit.
The company previously completed a normal course issuer bid that repurchased 1,522,831 shares at an average price of $92.26. That program expired on October 31, 2025. Insider activity followed the bid announcement, with Director Laurette T. Koellner purchasing over $2 million of shares on October 30, 2025, signaling confidence in the company’s valuation and future prospects.
The share repurchase program reflects Celestica’s strategy to return capital to shareholders while maintaining flexibility in its capital structure. By canceling repurchased shares, the company will reduce the number of shares outstanding, potentially enhancing earnings per share and supporting long‑term shareholder value.
