TORONTO, Jan. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MortgageBrokers.com Holdings Inc. (OTCBB: MBKR) one of North America's leading mortgage brokerage brand and consolidation firms today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a purchase of up to 2,000,000 shares of its issued and outstanding common stock as part of a stock buyback program. "We believe that the current share price does not accurately reflect MortgageBrokers.com's long-term growth prospects and therefore this stock buyback represents an excellent investment opportunity for both the Company and our shareholders," said Alex Haditaghi, CEO and Chairman. "We believe this initiative will result in the most effective use of our capital. In addition, the strength of our balance sheet enables us to simultaneously execute this program while still retaining significant flexibility to achieve our long-term growth strategies and build greater value for our shareholders," concluded Mr. Haditaghi. The timing and exact number of shares purchased will be at the Company's discretion and will depend on market conditions. All repurchases, which are expected to be funded from the Company's current cash and future cash flow, may occur in open market, negotiated or block transactions. The Company will not repurchase any shares from its management team or other insiders. This stock buyback program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
