Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation, the parent company of management and technology consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a $30 million share repurchase program, to be funded from cash on hand.

Under the share repurchase program, Booz Allen is authorized to repurchase up to $30 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. Any share repurchases made pursuant to the program will be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.
