Shares of Galaxy Digital were higher after the cryptocurrency and data center infrastructure company said its board approved a $200 million stock-buyback program.
Shares rose 13% to $19.07 in Friday morning trading. The stock is up 1.1% over the past year.
Chief Executive Mike Novogratz said Friday that the 12-month share-repurchase authorization was enabled by the company's strong balance sheet and business position.
"That foundation gives us the flexibility to return capital to shareholders when we believe our stock doesn't reflect the value of the business," Novogratz said. "The share-repurchase program also underscores our confidence in Galaxy's long-term prospects."
