Stockholders' Equity [Abstract] |
Stockholders' equity | NOTE 14 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Additional Paid-in Capital Additional paid-in capital represents contributed capital in excess of par value of common and preferred stock net of the costs of issuance. As of both periods, June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 accumulated issuance costs charged against additional paid in capital amounted to $13.6 million and $10.1 million for preferred and common stock, respectively. Legal Surplus The Puerto Rico Banking Act requires that a minimum of 10% of the Bank’s net income or loss for the year be transferred to a reserve fund until such fund (legal surplus) equals the total paid in capital on common and preferred stock. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank’s legal surplus amounted to $79.5 mi llion and $76.3 million, respectively. The amount transferred to the legal surplus account is not available for the payment of dividends to shareholders. Treasury Stock Under the Company’s current stock repurchase program it is authorized to purchase in the open market up $7.7 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. The shares of common stock repurchased are to be held by the Company as treasury shares. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not purchase any shares under the program. At June 30, 2017 the number of shares that may yet be purchased under the $70 million program is estimated at 773,085 and was calculated by dividing the remaining balance of $7.7 million by $1 0.0 0 (closing price of the Company common stock at June 30, 2017).
