Booz Allen Hamilton Approves $30 Million Share Repurchase Program
December 12, 2011 McLean, VA Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation (NYSE:BAH), 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.

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. The timing and amount of any share repurchases will be subject to market conditions and other factors as determined by the Company from time to time. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time at the Companys discretion without prior notice.
