AI Security Leader Expands Share Buyback Program

CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (CRWD) announced on April 6 that its board of directors has approved a $500 million increase to its existing share repurchase program, taking the total authorization to $1.5 billion (approximately KRW 2 trillion). To date, the company has bought back about $150.6 million (roughly KRW 200 billion) of Class A common stock at an average price of $364.57 per share. The additional repurchases will be carried out flexibly, with no set expiration, depending on market conditions. Management cited a disconnect between the company’s AI-driven growth momentum and its current valuation, and said that this capital return demonstrates their commitment to shareholders.

At RSAC 2026, CrowdStrike showcased its AI security leadership by unveiling its next-generation Falcon SIEM—now integrated with Microsoft security tools—along with enhanced AI detection and response capabilities. In late March, following an analyst upgrade that reflected rising demand for AI-centric cybersecurity solutions, the stock rallied, underscoring sustained market interest.

CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (CRWD), headquartered in Texas, is a cloud-native cybersecurity company that delivers integrated protection for endpoints, cloud workloads, identities and data through its AI-powered Falcon platform. Leveraging extensive experience in investigating major global breaches and its AI-driven threat intelligence, CrowdStrike is widely regarded as a key player meeting the growing security needs of the AI era.
