NOTE 13: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Share Repurchase Program
On May 3, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program, which will replace the previous program that was suspended in March 2020 at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. See Note 9: Share-Based Compensation — Common Stock Repurchase Program. Under the new program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $50 million of our Class A Non-Voting common shares over the next three years. Execution of the program will be responsive to fluctuating market conditions and valuations, liquidity needs and the expected return on investment compared to other opportunities.
The amount and timing of purchases will be dependent on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, general market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements, general business conditions, the level of cash flows, and corporate considerations determined
by management and the Board, such as liquidity and capital needs and the availability of attractive alternative investment opportunities. The Board of Directors has reserved the right to modify, suspend or terminate the program at any time.
Purchase Additional Shares of Cash Converters
On April 5, 2022, we purchased an additional 13 million shares of Cash Converters for $2.5 million. This purchase increased our total ownership in Cash Converters to 255,239,157 shares, representing an ownership interest of 40.67%. Additionally, in April 2022, we received a cash dividend of $1.8 million from Cash Converters.
