APPIAN CORP 8-K

What Happened

• Appian Corporation announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 in a press release dated May 7, 2026 and scheduled a conference call to discuss the results, recent business highlights and financial outlook. The press release was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K.
• On the same day the Board authorized a share repurchase program to buy up to $50.0 million of Appian common stock, effective May 2026 through February 2028.

Key Details

• Filing date: May 7, 2026; quarter covered: quarter ended March 31, 2026.
• Share Repurchase Program size: up to $50.0 million of common stock.
• Repurchase window: effective May 2026 through February 2028; no obligation to repurchase any specific number of shares.
• Repurchases may be made via open market transactions, privately negotiated purchases, Rule 10b5-1 plans, accelerated share repurchases, or other permitted methods; timing and amount depend on liquidity, market conditions, debt covenants and other factors.

Why It Matters

• The Q1 results and conference call provide investors with the company’s latest operating and financial picture and management’s outlook for the year.
• The $50.0M repurchase authorization signals the Board’s intent to use capital to buy back shares, which can reduce share count and potentially support per-share metrics; however, actual repurchases are discretionary and subject to liquidity, covenants and market conditions.
