GEE Group Announces Share Repurchase Program

Program Authorizes up to $20 Million of Shares of Common Stock to be Repurchased

JACKSONVILLE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / April 27, 2023 / GEE Group Inc. (NYSE American:JOB) together with its subsidiaries (collectively referred to

the "Company", "GEE Group", "us", "our", or "we"), a provider of professional staffing services and human resource solutions, today announced that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with authorization to purchase up to $20 million of the Company's currently outstanding shares of common stock, no par value (the "Common Stock").

"GEE Group is committed to balance capital deployment that drives long-term, profitable, organic growth augmented by strategic acquisitions executed using a disciplined pricing approach," said Derek Dewan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "We believe that the strength of our business model and significant cash flow generation, enables us to continue investing for the long term, in addition to allowing us to opportunistically buy back stock through a repurchase program, which we believe will assist in delivering strong returns for shareholders. This program is a direct reflection of our belief that our shares are undervalued, represent an attractive investment opportunity and a demonstration of our confidence in the business and the long-term opportunity ahead."

Under the share repurchase program, the Company's management is authorized to repurchase shares of Common Stock from time to time through open market purchases under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance with other applicable legal requirements. GEE Group expects to fund the share repurchase program from operating cash flow and cash on hand, which was approximately $20 million as of March 31, 2023. The timing and total amount of Common Stock repurchases will depend upon the Company's trading window, business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices, liquidity and other factors. The share repurchase program will continue through December 31, 2023, may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the Company to repurchase any number of shares of Common Stock. Upon the expiration of the share repurchase program, GEE Group's Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, authorize a new share repurchase program, however, it is not obligated to do so.
