(NASDAQ: DSKE) (“Daseke” or the “Company”), the premier North American transportation solutions specialist dedicated to servicing challenging industrial end-markets, announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a stock repurchase program, under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $40 million of its outstanding common stock.

The Company intends to fund the repurchase program with cash on hand. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, or other means in accordance with federal securities laws, and may be repurchased pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.
