Share Repurchases

Share Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors authorized the Share Repurchase Program in April 2023 that allowed us to repurchase and retire up to $50.0 million of outstanding common stock. Between April 2024 and October 2025, extensions of the Share Repurchase Program were approved by our Board of Directors authorizing an additional $200.0 million, or a total of $250.0 million, to repurchase and retire outstanding common stock through December 31, 2026.  As of December 31, 2025, available capacity under the Share Repurchase Program was $117.7 million. Under the Share Repurchase Program, shares of our common stock may be repurchased periodically, including in the open market, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, at any time.

Through December 31, 2025, we repurchased 4,461,311 common shares at an average price of $20.72 per share for an aggregate of $92.4 million and retired 3,813,831 common shares at an average price of $20.09 per share for an aggregate of $76.6 million under the Share Repurchase Program. On January 9, 2026, we retired 647,480 common shares at an average price of $24.44 per share for an aggregate of $15.8 million for shares repurchased during the fourth quarter 2025.
