Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On May 9, 2024, we fully redeemed our 240,000 shares of 6.0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for $308.9 million. The payment was calculated as the face value of the Series A Preferred Stock of $240.0 million, multiplied by the Return Factor of 1.4, less dividends paid to date of $27.1 million. The redemption premium of $75.2 million, which was calculated as the difference between the redemption amount and the book value of $233.7 million, was recorded as a deemed dividend, and reduces net income available to common shareholders. The Series A Preferred Stock was redeemed using proceeds from the April 2024 Secondary Public Offering. See Note 14.

Dividends

The Series A Preferred Stock accumulated a 6.0% dividend per annum, or $15.00 per share per quarter. Dividends were payable in cash or in kind, by accreting and increasing the Series A Base Amount (“PIK Dividends”). Dividends were payable on the sum of (i) the aggregate liquidation preference amount of $240.0 million plus (ii) any PIK Dividends. Dividends were accrued daily and paid quarterly in arrears, on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. Following the calendar quarter ending June 30, 2027, we were not able to elect PIK Dividends and dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock were required to be paid in cash. All dividends were paid in cash through May 9, 2024, at which time the Series A Preferred Stock was redeemed. The dividend would have increased annually by one percentage point, beginning with the dividend payable for the calendar quarter ending September 30, 2028. Dividends declared and paid for the three months ended May 31, 2024 were $3.6 million.
