Orbit International Announces Repurchase of 156,450 Shares of Its Common Stock

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., March 17, 2017 -- Orbit International Corp. (OTC PINK:ORBT), an electronics manufacturer and software solution provider, today announced that it repurchased, in the aggregate, 156,450 shares of its common stock, at an average price of $3.88 per share, in two separate transactions this week. The first transaction was a private sale in which the Company purchased 86,450 of its common shares from Kenneth Ice, an officer and member of its Board of Directors (the “Board”). This transaction is towards the Board’s recently announced $450,000 repurchase authorization. Additional information concerning this purchase is being provided in a separate press release being issued later this morning. In a separate transaction approved by our Board, the Company purchased 70,000 of its common shares in an open market transaction. This purchase was made outside of the Board’s recent $450,000 repurchase authorization.

Mitchell Binder, President and CEO of Orbit International commented, “Our financial condition remains strong and we believe that these two stock repurchases are a prudent use of our cash. We remain committed to enhance shareholder value through opportunistic repurchases of our common stock. We have approximately $122,000 of availability under our Board’s recent repurchase authorization and will continue to be in the market for repurchases of our common stock.”
