EXHIBIT 99.1
CDW Authorizes $1 Billion Share Repurchase Program Increase
Reinforces Ongoing Commitment to Delivering Value to Stockholders
VERNON HILLS, Ill., May 13, 2026-- CDW Corporation (Nasdaq: CDW) announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a $1 billion increase to the Company’s share repurchase program.
"Share repurchases represent an important component of our capital allocation priorities, along with dividends, strategic M&A, and managing our capital structure." said Albert J. Miralles, chief financial officer, CDW. "Since our IPO in June 2013 we have returned approximately $8.4 billion to stockholders through share repurchases and dividends. Our capital allocation strategy has enabled us to deliver value to our stockholders, just as we have delivered value to our customers and partners for over 40 years."
Future share repurchase authorizations will be at the discretion of and subject to approval by CDW's Board of Directors. The $1 billion authorization is incremental to the approximately $484 million remaining from the previous repurchase program as of March 31, 2026. Share repurchases under the program will be made from time to time in private transactions, open market purchases, or other transactions as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing and amounts of any purchases will be based on market conditions and other factors including but not limited to price, regulatory requirements, and capital availability. The program does not require the purchase of any minimum dollar amount or number of shares and the program may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.
