Brighthouse Financial, Inc. (“Brighthouse Financial” or the “company”) (Nasdaq: BHF) announced today that it has authorized the repurchase of up to $750 million of its common stock. The stock repurchase program is in addition to the $1 billion stock repurchase authorization announced by the company in August 2021, under which $71 million remains as of November 15, 2023.

“We are pleased to announce this new stock repurchase program, which further demonstrates our ongoing commitment to return capital to our shareholders over time,” said Eric Steigerwalt, president and CEO, Brighthouse Financial. “Since we began our common stock repurchase program in August 2018 through November 15 of this year, we have repurchased approximately $2.2 billion of our common stock and reduced the number of shares outstanding by more than 46% from the time we became an independent, public company.”

Repurchases under the program may be made through open market purchases, including pursuant to 10b5-1 plans or pursuant to accelerated stock repurchase plans, or through privately negotiated transactions, from time to time at management’s discretion in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
