Authorization of Stock Repurchase Program by Board
Gallup, New Mexico - November 12, 1996 -- GFSB Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq
SmallCap Market: GUPB), the holding company of Gallup Federal Savings Bank, has
announced its intention to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock. Mr.
Jerry R. Spurlin, President, said the Company has been authorized by its Board
of Directors to repurchase up to 142,312 shares (approximately 15% of its
currently outstanding shares) of common stock. The Company has received the
necessary regulatory application to initiate the repurchase program.
The repurchases are expected to be made in open-market transactions,
subject to the availability of stock, market conditions, the trading price of
the stock and the Company's financial performance. Such repurchased shares will
be retired, thereby available in the future for general corporate and other
purposes, including the issuance of shares in connection with the exercise of
stock options. The repurchase program is expected to be completed by June 28,
1997, at which time the Company may terminate or continue the program.
The Company completed its offering of common stock in connection with
the conversion of Gallup Federal Savings Bank from a federally chartered mutual
savings association to a federally chartered stock savings bank on June 29,
1995. The Company sold 948,750 shares at $10.00 per share, raising $9,487,500 in
gross proceeds.
At September 30, 1996, the Company reported total consolidated assets
and consolidated stockholders' equity of $79.7 million and $14.7 million,
respectively. Gallup Federal Savings Bank operates through its office located in
Gallup, New Mexico. The Savings Bank's deposits are insured up to legal maximum
limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
