Common Stock COMMON STOCK
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were 54,755,900 and 56,219,831 shares of our common stock outstanding, respectively.
We have paid quarterly dividends since October 25, 2011. We paid a regular quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share throughout 2020. In December 2020, our Board of Directors announced its intention to increase the regular quarterly dividend to $0.13 per share commencing with the dividend to be paid in the first quarter of 2021.
In September 2011, our Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized a share repurchase program allowing us to begin repurchasing shares of our outstanding common stock. Subsequently, the Board has from time to time increased the amount of our common stock that we may repurchase under such program. Since the inception of the repurchase program, the Board has authorized us to repurchase up to $1.15 billion of our outstanding common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we repurchased approximately 1.7 million shares of our common stock for approximately $112.6 million. Since the inception of the repurchase program through December 31, 2020, we have repurchased approximately 17.5 million shares of our common stock for approximately $904.0 million. As of December 31, 2020, there remained authorization for us to repurchase approximately $246.0 million of our shares. The repurchase program has no expiration date, does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and may be suspended, recommenced, or discontinued at any time or from time to time without prior notice. We may repurchase our shares from time to time to the extent permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements, including provisions in our 2020 Credit Agreement placing limitations on such repurchases. The repurchase program has been and will be funded from our operations.
