Exhibit 99.1

17 October 2024

Nexxen International Ltd
(“Nexxen” or the “Company”)

Nexxen Seeking Authorization for New $50 Million Ordinary Share Repurchase Program

Nexxen International Ltd. (AIM/NASDAQ: NEXN) (“Nexxen” or the “Company”), a global, flexible advertising technology platform with deep expertise in data and advanced TV, today announced that the Company is seeking authorization to repurchase directly (or through one or more of its subsidiaries) a further $50 million of its Ordinary Shares from time to time.

As an Israeli company, Nexxen is required to comply with newly-adopted Israeli regulations that require the Company to await the expiration of a creditor objection period before the new Ordinary Share repurchase program can become effective. The newly adopted Israeli regulations replace the mandatory Israeli court approval that was in effect prior to the new regulations, resulting in a shorter authorization process. In addition, the commencement of the Ordinary Share repurchase program is subject to receipt of the consent of the Company’s bank lenders.

Following the expiration of the creditor objection period, and assuming no objections and the receipt of consent, the authorization will provide Nexxen with the right to repurchase its Ordinary Shares but does not require the Company or its subsidiaries to acquire any, or a specific number of, Ordinary Shares.

The Company will provide an update upon commencement of the Ordinary Share repurchase program and announce the terms of any program commenced or indicate if the commencement of the program will be postponed due to Company creditor objections or the Company’s bank lenders not providing consent.

Any Ordinary Shares acquired by the Company as a result of the repurchase program will be reclassified as dormant shares under the Israeli Companies Law (without any rights attached thereon) and will be held in treasury, and any Ordinary Shares acquired by a subsidiary of the Company as a result of the repurchase program will be held by such subsidiary without any voting rights under the Israeli Companies Law.

The share repurchase program does not obligate Nexxen or its subsidiaries to repurchase any particular amount of Ordinary Shares and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion (if not in a close period), subject to applicable law.

The Company’s current Share Repurchase Program of up to $50 million expires on 1 November 2024.
