Share Repurchase Program

NOTE 16 – SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In September 2017, the board approved a share repurchase program that allows for share repurchases in the aggregate up to $100.0 million under approved share repurchase plans pursuant to Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In November 2021, the board amended and increased the limit under the previous authorization of $100.0 million to $200.0 million. The Restated Credit Agreement permits share repurchases provided the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, prior to and after giving effect to such repurchases, is 0.50 to 1.00 less than the then-applicable maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio and subject to a net liquidity of $100.0 million. Notwithstanding the formula-based limit, the Company is permitted to make share repurchases up to $25.0 million per calendar year without triggering a default.

Purchases under this program may be made from time to time at prevailing market prices in open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions pursuant to Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act and in accordance with applicable insider trading and other securities laws and regulations. The purchases are funded from existing cash balances and/or borrowings, and the repurchased shares are held in treasury and used for general corporate purposes. The timing and extent to which the Company repurchases its shares will depend on market conditions and other corporate considerations in the Company’s sole discretion.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company used $17.0 million to repurchase 176,375 shares and $14.7 million to repurchase 173,000 shares, respectively, under the share repurchase program. As of September 30, 2022, $111.9 million remained available for share repurchases under the repurchase program.
