NOTE 24 – Shareholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

We have an ongoing authorization from the Board of Directors to repurchase our common stock in the open market or in negotiated transactions. At September 30, 2025, the maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under this plan was 7.9 million. The repurchase program has no expiration date. These purchases may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending upon market conditions and other factors. Repurchased shares may be used to meet obligations under our company’s employee benefit plans and for general corporate purposes.

The following table presents the Company’s share repurchase activity using existing Board authorizations during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands, except average price):
