SALINAS, Calif., Aug. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Pacific Valley Bancorp ("PVB" or "Company"; OTC Markets: PVBK), parent company of Pacific Valley Bank, announced its Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program. Under the program, PVB is authorized to repurchase up to $3 million of common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, as market conditions warrant, but does not obligate PVB to repurchase any specified number of shares.

The timing and price of repurchases as well as the actual number of shares repurchased under the program will be at the discretion of PVB and will depend on a variety of factors, including general market conditions, share price, regulatory requirements and limitations, corporate liquidity requirements and other factors. The share repurchase program will remain in effect through July 31, 2028, unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.

"This share repurchase program reflects our confidence in our financial strength and the long-term value of our company," said Joseph Robello, Chairman of the Board of Directors. "The program represents a proactive and strategic use of capital, reinforcing our commitment to enhancing shareholder value while maintaining the flexibility to invest in future growth."

PVB intends to fund repurchases from internal funds and to execute repurchases in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and bank regulations, including without limitation, rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The stock repurchase program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time without notice.
