Shareholders' Equity [Abstract] |
Shareholders' Equity | 11. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY Share Repurchases On June 29, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors terminated the MSC Stock Repurchase Plan, which was established during fiscal year 1999, and authorized a new share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) to purchase up to 5,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. There is no expiration date governing the period over which the Company can repurchase shares under the Share Repurchase Program. As of August 28, 2021, the maximum number of shares that may yet be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program was 5,000 shares. The Share Repurchase Program allows the Company to repurchase shares at any time and in any increments it deems appropriate in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During fiscal years 2021 and 2020, the Company repurchased 789 shares and 48 shares, respectively, of its Class A Common Stock for $71,261 and $3,444, respectively. In fiscal year 2021, 736 of the shares repurchased were immediately retired. In fiscal years 2021 and 2020, 53 and 48 shares, respectively, were repurchased by the Company to satisfy the Company’s associates’ tax withholding liability associated with its share-based compensation program. Shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock purchased pursuant to the stock purchase agreement, as well as shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock purchased to satisfy the Company’s associates’ tax withholding liability associated with its share-based compensation program, did not reduce the number of shares that may be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program. The Company reissued 57 and 69 shares of Class A treasury stock during fiscal years 2021 and 2020 to fund the Associate Stock Purchase Plan (as defined below) (see Note 12, “Associate Benefit Plans”). Common Stock Each holder of the Company’s Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share held of record on the applicable record date on all matters presented to a vote of shareholders, including the election of directors. The holders of the Company’s Class B Common Stock are entitled to 10 votes for each share held of record on the applicable record date and are entitled to vote, together with the holders of the Class A Common Stock, on all matters which are subject to shareholder approval. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock have no cumulative voting rights or preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any stock or other securities and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such stock. The holders of the Company’s Class B Common Stock have the right to convert their shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock at their election and on a one-to-one basis, and all shares of Class B Common Stock convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one to-one basis upon the sale or transfer of such shares of Class B Common Stock to any person who is not a member of the Jacobson or Gershwind families or any trust not established principally for members of the Jacobson or Gershwind families or to any person who is not an executor, administrator or personal representative of an estate of a member of the Jacobson or Gershwind families. Preferred Stock The Company has authorized 5,000 shares of preferred stock. The Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to issue the shares of preferred stock. Shares of preferred stock may have priority over the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights, or both. As of August 28, 2021, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding. Cash Dividend In 2003, the Board of Directors instituted a policy of regular quarterly cash dividends to shareholders. This policy is reviewed regularly by the Board of Directors. The Company expects its practice of paying quarterly cash dividends on its common stock will continue, although the payment of future dividends is at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon its earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other factors. On October 14, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.75 per share, payable on November 30, 2021 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 16, 2021. The dividend will result in a payout of approximately $41,606, based on the number of shares outstanding at October 1, 2021.
