Stockholders' Equity and Earnings per Common Share

Note 7 - Stockholders’ Equity and Earnings per Common Share

Stockholders’ Equity

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share.

On March 2, 2021, we entered into a distribution agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., B. Riley Securities, Inc., JMP Securities LLC and Raymond James & Associates, Inc. as sales agents, to sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $200,000,000, from time to time, through an “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”). We have no obligation to sell any shares under the ATM Program, and sold no shares under the ATM Program during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 there were 41.7 million Public Warrants outstanding and 5.2 million Private Placement Warrants outstanding. In the aggregate, we have outstanding warrants to purchase approximately 15.6 million shares of common stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share. Settlement of outstanding warrants will be in shares of our common stock, unless we elect (solely in our discretion) to settle warrants we have called for redemption in cash, and subject to customary adjustment in the event of business combinations and certain tender offers.

The liability for the Private Placement Warrants was $1.8 million as of March 31, 2022 and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
