Stock Repurchases On March 13, 2025, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with each of Snow Phipps Group, L.P., Snow Phipps Group (B), L.P., Snow Phipps Group (Offshore), L.P., Snow Phipps Group (RPV), L.P. and SPG Co-Investment, L.P. (together, the Snow Phipps Sellers), pursuant to which the Company purchased an aggregate of 521 shares of its common stock from the Snow Phipps Sellers at a purchase price of $17.47 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $9,101. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 3,149 shares of its common stock on the open market at prevailing market prices pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 stock repurchase plan, in accordance with applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), for total open market repurchases of approximately $61,485. The above repurchases were pursuant to the Company’s existing $100,000 stock purchase program that was announced on September 13, 2024. The Company intends to finance the repurchases with free cash flow, excess cash and liquidity on-hand, including available capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s proposed repurchases may be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act. Repurchases may be effected pursuant to a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. The Company’s Board of Directors will review the share repurchase program periodically and may authorize adjustment of its terms and size or suspend or discontinue the program. Under this stock repurchase program, all shares repurchased are immediately retired. Upon retirement of repurchased stock, the excess of the purchase price plus excise tax over par value is allocated to additional paid-in capital, subject to certain limitations. Any remainder is allocated to retained earnings to the extent that positive retained earnings exist.
