Robinhood (HOOD) lifts buyback program to $1.5 billion

Share This Post

Robinhood’s (HOOD) board has approved a new $1.5 billion share repurchase program, according to an 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

It adds more than $1.1 billion to existing buyback capacity.

The company said it expects to carry out the plan over about three years starting in the first quarter of 2026, though it is not required to buy a fixed amount.

Alongside the buyback, Robinhood also strengthened its access to funding. Its subsidiary, Robinhood Securities, entered into an updated credit agreement with lenders led by JPMorgan. The deal expands a revolving credit facility to $3.25 billion, up from $2.65 billion, with the option to increase total commitments to $4.875 billion.

One of last year’s hottest stocks, in large part thanks to the boom in crypto-related trading, HOOD has lost more than 50% of its value since bitcoin topped in early October. Shares are up 1.4% in after hours trading.
