NOTE 12. TREASURY STOCK

In January 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of $10.0 million to the open market stock repurchase program, refreshing the total program to an aggregate of $10 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repurchased 532,477 shares of its common stock for a total cost of approximately $31.1 million, or an average price per share of $58.40, which includes both open market purchases and the Block Share Repurchase (hereinafter defined). The shares of the Company’s common stock repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were returned to the Company’s treasury.

 

On April 10, 2019, the Company repurchased 320,741 shares of common stock, or approximately 6% of the Company’s outstanding shares, for approximately $18.4 million (the “Block Share Repurchase”).  The shares were purchased from investment vehicles managed by Wintergreen Advisers, LLC (collectively, the “Wintergreen Entities”) in connection with the Wintergreen Entities’ disposition of their entire position in Company shares (approximately 28% of the Company’s outstanding shares at the time of the Block Share Repurchase).  The shares sold by the Wintergreen Entities not repurchased by the Company were acquired by multiple third-party investors. The Block Share Repurchase was completed outside of the Company’s existing $10.0 million buyback program and was funded utilizing capacity under the Credit Facility.
