Q3 Results Set for November 16

-
Buyback Suspended
Perion suspended its share repurchase program in connection with the pending transaction; as of October 30, 2026 it had repurchased 21.3 million shares for $196.8 million.
-
Affle Deal Pending
The $11.70-per-share all-cash acquisition by Affle, about $420 million of equity value, is expected to close in early 2027 subject to closing conditions including Perion shareholder approval.
Analysis · PERI · Technology
With the pending $11.70-per-share all-cash acquisition by Affle rendering forward guidance and buybacks moot, Perion is pulling its full-year 2026 outlook and 2028 targets and suspending its share repurchase program. Investors will get Q3 numbers on November 16, but no conference call means no management discussion while the deal is pending. The buyback had already repurchased 21.3 million shares for $196.8 million of its $200 million authorization as of October 30, 2026, leaving little capacity anyway.
