Note 15: Share Repurchase Program

 

On September 30, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program of up to $100,000 of our outstanding common shares. Under the program, we are authorized to repurchase shares for cash on the open market, from time to time, in privately negotiated transactions or block transactions, or through an accelerated repurchase agreement. The timing of such repurchases is dependent on price, market conditions and applicable regulatory requirements. Upon repurchase of the shares, we reduced our common stock for the par value of the shares with the excess being applied against additional paid-in capital.

 

During the third quarter of 2012 we repurchased shares under this program with an aggregate value of $2,999. Of this amount, $100 reduced common stock and $2,899 reduced additional paid-in capital. There were no shares repurchased under this program during the first two quarters of 2012. During the third quarter of 2011 we repurchased shares under this program with an aggregate value of $2,499. Of this amount, $120 reduced common stock and $2,379 reduced additional paid-in capital. During the first nine months of 2011 we repurchased shares under this program, with an aggregate value of $7,494. Of this amount, $346 reduced common stock and $7,148 reduced additional paid-in capital.
