The Joint Corp. (NASDAQ: JYNT), the nation's largest provider of
chiropractic care through The Joint Chiropractic® network,
announced that its board of directors has authorized a stock
repurchase program expected to begin in August 2025 under which the
company may repurchase up to $5 million of its outstanding common
stock.
“The stock buyback reflects the board’s confidence in our
long-term strategy, refranchising program and our projected cash
flow generation,” said Sanjiv Razdan, chief executive officer,
president and director of The Joint Corp. “We believe our franchise
model and long-term valuation are not yet fully recognized in our
current stock price. This stock repurchase program underscores our
commitment to disciplined capital allocation and delivering value
to our stockholders.”
Repurchases may be made from time to time in open market
transactions, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means,
in accordance with applicable securities laws and subject to market
conditions and other factors. The timing, number and amount of any
repurchases will be determined by the company’s finance committee
of the board of directors at its discretion. The stock repurchase
program does not obligate the company to acquire any particular
amount of common stock, has a termination date of June 3, 2027 and
may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements about future events and
expectations that constitute forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions
and expectations of industry trends, our future financial and
operating performance and our growth plans, taking into account the
information currently available to us. These statements are not
statements of historical fact. Words such as, "anticipates,"
"believes," "continues," "estimates," "expects," "goal,"
"objectives," "intends," "may," "opportunity," "plans,"
"potential," "near-term," "long-term," "projections,"
"assumptions," "projects," "guidance," "forecasts," "outlook,"
"target," "trends," "should," "could," "would," "will," and similar
expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. Specific forward-looking statements made in this press
release include, among others, our belief that the stock buyback
reflects the board’s confidence in our long-term strategy,
refranchising program and our projected cash flow generation; that
our franchise model and long-term valuation are not yet fully
recognized in our current stock price, and that the stock
repurchase program underscores our commitment to disciplined
capital allocation and delivering value to our stockholders.
Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may
cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations
of future results we express or imply in any forward-looking
statements, and you should not place undue reliance on such
statements. Factors that could contribute to these differences
include, but are not limited to, our inability to identify and
recruit enough qualified chiropractors and other personnel to staff
our clinics, due in part to the nationwide labor shortage and an
increase in operating expenses due to measures we may need to take
to address such shortage; inflation, which has increased our costs
and which could otherwise negatively impact our business; our
failure to profitably operate company-owned or managed clinics; our
failure to refranchise as planned; short-selling strategies and
negative opinions posted on the internet, which could drive down
the market price of our common stock and result in class action
lawsuits; our failure to remediate future material weaknesses in
our internal control over financial reporting, which could
negatively impact our ability to accurately report our financial
results, prevent fraud, or maintain investor confidence; and other
factors described in our filings with the SEC, including in the
section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March
14, 2025 and subsequently filed current and quarterly reports. We
qualify any forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary
factors. We assume no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements for any reason or to update the reasons
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in
these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes
available in the future. Comparisons of results for current and any
prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or
indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and
should only be viewed as historical data.
