FirstSun Capital Bancorp Authorizes $150 Million Stock Buyback Program
The buyback announcement was paired with second-quarter results, though the specific earnings figures were disclosed in a separate release.
July 27, 2026
FirstSun Capital Bancorp, the Denver-based parent company of a regional bank trading on Nasdaq under the symbol FSUN, disclosed on July 27, 2026, that its board of directors has authorized a program to buy back as much as $150 million of the company’s common stock.
The board approved the repurchase authorization on July 24, 2026. Under the program, the company may buy shares through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, potentially using a structured trading plan that complies with existing securities rules governing such buybacks.
How the Program Will Work
Company management will decide the timing, price and volume of any purchases, weighing several factors, including:
- Trading activity and the stock’s market price
- The company’s financial performance
- Broader economic and market conditions
- Other business and regulatory considerations
The authorization runs through June 30, 2027, though the company noted it can modify, pause or end the program at any point without advance warning, and it is not obligated to repurchase any shares at all.
Paired With Quarterly Results
The disclosure came alongside two other announcements. Earlier that day, FirstSun Capital Bancorp released its second-quarter earnings results for the period ended June 30, 2026, though the specific financial figures were contained in a separate press release rather than in this notice itself. The company also posted an investor presentation on its website covering those results, which it plans to use during an earnings conference call scheduled for 11 a.m. Eastern time the following day, as well as at upcoming investor conferences.
FirstSun Capital Bancorp identifies itself as an emerging growth company, a status under securities law that allows recently public companies certain accommodations in their financial reporting obligations.
The notice was signed on the company’s behalf by Robert A. Cafera Jr., who serves as senior executive vice president and chief financial officer.
