Shareholders' equity
Series A Preferred Stock
The Company has 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2024 ("Series A Preferred Stock"). The Series A Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis on the last day of 2026.
The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive an annual dividend in the form of common shares or cash, at the Company’s sole option (for which the Company settled in shares subsequent to year end) based on the increase in the market price of the Company’s common stock (the "Annual Dividend Amount"). The Annual Dividend Amount is equal to 20% of the increase in the volume-weighted average market price per share of the Company’s common shares for the last ten trading days of the calendar year, multiplied by 141,194,638 shares. As of December 31, 2024, an annual dividend was calculated based on the appreciation of the Company’s share price of $37.3070 over the highest price previously used in calculating the Annual Dividend Amount of $33.9465. The annual dividend declared as of December 31, 2024 was settled in shares and the Company issued 2,543,662 common shares to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in January 2025.
As of December 31, 2023, an annual dividend was calculated based on the appreciation of the Company's share price of $33.9465 over the highest price previously used in calculating the Annual Dividend Amount of $24.3968. The annual dividend declared as of December 31, 2023 was settled in shares and the Company issued 7,944,104 common shares to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in January 2024.
The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are also entitled to participate in any dividends on the common shares on an if-converted basis. In addition, if the Company pays a dividend on its common shares, the Series A Preferred Stock holders will also receive an amount equal to 20% of the dividend which would be distributable on 141,194,638 of common shares. All such dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be paid at the same time as the dividends on the common shares. Dividends are paid for the term the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding.
Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into one common share at the option of the holder until conversion. If there is more than one holder of Series A Preferred Stock, a holder of Series A Preferred Stock may exercise its rights independently of any other holder of Series A Preferred Stock.

During 2024, the Company issued 12,650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in a public underwritten offering. The proceeds from this offering totaled approximately $458, net of related expenses.

During 2024, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program ("SRP") to purchase up to an aggregate of $1,000 shares of the Company's common stock. This stock repurchase program will expire when the authorized amount is exhausted, unless otherwise modified or terminated by the Company's Board of Directors at any time in its sole discretion. The SRP authorizes open market, private, and accelerated share repurchase transactions. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 16,260,160 shares of common stock for approximately $600.
