Repurchase of Common Stock
The Company's Board of Directors authorized the September 3, 2021 share repurchase program to repurchase up to 6,000,000 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. This authorization is effective from September 3, 2021 through September 30, 2024. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company repurchased 653,994 and 1,711,501 shares, respectively, as part of the share repurchase programs.
Under the repurchase programs, repurchased shares were retired and designated as authorized but unissued shares. The Company accounts for repurchased shares using the par value method under which the repurchase price is charged to paid-in capital up to the amount of the original proceeds of those shares. When the repurchase price is greater than the original issue proceeds, the excess is charged to retained earnings. As of December 31, 2022, 3,640,983 shares of common stock remained available for repurchase.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company also repurchased 57,291 and 61,172 shares, or $2.0 million and $3.4 million of common stock, respectively, in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of restricted stock.
Retirement of Treasury Stock
The Company accounts for the retirement of repurchased shares, including treasury stock, using the par value method under which the repurchase price is charged to paid-in capital up to the amount of the original proceeds of those shares. When the repurchase price is greater than the original issue proceeds, the excess is charged to retained earnings. The Company retired zero shares of common stock held in treasury during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
