Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. Board Authorizes Share Repurchase Program

August 11, 2025 08:00 ET | Source: Inspire Medical Systems MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE: INSP) (Inspire, or the company), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative, minimally invasive solutions for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $200 million of the company’s outstanding shares of common stock. “I am pleased to announce our intention to purchase up to $200 million of Inspire common stock,” said Tim Herbert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “During the second quarter, we initiated the full U.S. launch of Inspire V, our next-generation neurostimulation system. This is the largest product launch in the history of our company, and we are investing in marketing and footprint expansion to support the launch. At the same time, the continued financial strength of the company allows us to return capital to stockholders while we continue to invest for future growth. Furthermore, we remain confident that our growth prospects are substantial, as we are very lightly penetrated into our addressable market, and that our stock is undervalued. As a result, we believe that the repurchase of our common stock represents an attractive investment opportunity.” In determining the amount of capital to allocate to share repurchases, the company considers, among other things, its historical and expected business performance and cash and liquidity position, as well as global economic and market conditions and the market price of the company’s common stock. The timing, manner, price, and amount of any repurchases under the share repurchase program are determined by the company in its discretion. Purchases may be effected through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, transactions structured through investment banking institutions, or other means. The company is not obligated to repurchase any specific number of shares and the program may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time. The share repurchase program will expire on August 7, 2027, subject to the earlier termination or extension by the Board, in its sole discretion and without prior notice, or until such time that the funds designated for the stock repurchase program are depleted.
