Preferred Stock

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had 10,000 shares of authorized but unissued and undesignated preferred stock. The Company’s charter provides that the Board of Directors has authority to issue preferred stock, with voting powers, designations, preferences, and special rights, qualifications, limitation, or restrictions as permitted by law as determined by the Board of Directors, without stockholder approval. The Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock.

Treasury Stock

On January 29, 2025 the Board of Directors approved a $200,000 increase under its existing stock repurchase program reflecting an aggregate authorization for share repurchases since the initiation of the program of $2,245,000. The expiration date on the repurchase authorization is March 1, 2026. Repurchases occur at the Company’s discretion. Repurchases may be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to the applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules. The amount and timing of future share repurchases, if any, will be made as market and business conditions warrant.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 1,142 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $165,405. As of December 31, 2024, there remained $99,648 available under its current share

repurchase authorization (which authorization was increased to $299,648 in January 2025). Shares repurchased in lieu of taxes are not included in the repurchase plan totals as they were approved in conjunction with the restricted share awards.
