Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Curtiss-Wright Announces New $100 Million Expansion of 2024 Share Repurchase Program, Raises Minimum Annual Repurchase Plan to $60 Million for 2025
December 17, 2024 | Curtiss-Wright CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Curtiss-Wright Corporation announced a $100 million expansion of its 2024 share repurchase program, which it expects to complete via a 10b5-1 program by the end of the year. This program will be conducted in concurrence with the existing $50 million share repurchase program being executed this year, and follows the recent completion of a $100 million opportunistic program that was executed in the third quarter. As a result, the Company now expects annual share repurchases of $250 million in 2024.
Beginning in January 2025, the Company also expects to repurchase $60 million in shares via a 10b5-1 program, an increase from the prior $50 million annual plan, which is expected to offset potential dilution from compensation plans.
“We are pleased to announce this new $100 million expansion of our 2024 repurchase program and increase to our annual share buyback commitment,” said Lynn M. Bamford, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Curtiss-Wright Corporation. “These increases are enabled by our healthy balance sheet and support our continued expectations for strong growth in profitability and free cash flow. Overall, we maintain a strong focus on disciplined capital allocation centered on pursuing strategic acquisitions as an accelerator to organic growth, reinvesting in our business, and returning capital to shareholders through share repurchase and dividend distributions.”
