Stock Repurchase Programs

In September 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $250,000 stock repurchase program, which expired in October 2020. In September 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved another stock repurchase program, which commenced on October 27, 2020, and allows for the repurchase of up to $250,000 of the Company's common stock over a 24-month period. The Company may repurchase its common stock from time to time, in amounts and at prices the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions and other considerations. The repurchases may be executed using open market purchases, privately negotiated agreements or other transactions. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, general market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements, and compliance with the terms of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness. The repurchases may be funded with cash on hand, available borrowings or proceeds from potential debt or other capital markets sources. The stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 350,000 shares of its common stock for $125,992, all funded with cash on hand. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. Since the inception of all stock repurchase programs (starting in August 2015), the Company has repurchased 9,026,706 shares of its common stock for $431,539 (at an average cost per share of $47.81), all funded with cash on hand.
