ELKHART, Ind., Feb. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Patrick Industries', Inc. (NASDAQ: PATK) Board of Directors today authorized a stock repurchase program for purchasing up to $10 million of the Company's common stock from time to time through open market or private transactions over the next 12 months.  Share repurchases will be made from time to time for cash in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.  The timing and amount of purchases under the program will be determined by management based upon market conditions and other factors.  All or part of the repurchases may be implemented under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, which would allow repurchases under pre-set terms at times when the Company might otherwise be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed blackout periods.
