Equity [Abstract] |
Equity Transactions | Equity Transactions Stock Repurchases As of December 31, 2017, 4.2 million shares of the Company's common stock have been authorized to be repurchased under the Board of Directors approved share repurchase program and 0.9 million shares remain available for repurchase. Under the terms of the program, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time at its discretion through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions and/or other mechanisms, depending on price and prevailing market and business conditions. The program, which has no specified term, may be suspended or terminated at any time. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company repurchased a total of 66,244 common shares for approximately $7.5 million. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had repurchased a total of 3,852,805 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $103.55 per share plus transaction costs for a total cost of $399.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company repurchased 1,727,746 common shares at a price of $93.50 per share for a total purchase price of $161.5 million from the Bank of Montreal Holdings Inc. pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement and repurchased 556,516 shares representing 6.7% of the Company's common stock outstanding, pursuant to a "modified Dutch Auction" tender offer. Equity Issuances During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 1,260,169 shares of common stock consisting of: (1) 1,046,500 shares of common stock in a public offering, which included the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, for net proceeds of $109.5 million, after underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses; and (2) 213,669 shares of the Company's common stock as part of the consideration for the acquisition of RidgeWorth. (See Note 3 for further discussion of the Acquisition.) During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 1,150,000 shares of 7.25% mandatory convertible preferred stock ("MCPS") in a public offering which included the exercised over-allotment option for net proceeds of $111.0 million, after underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses. The MCPS was issued with a liquidation preference of $100.00 per share. Unless converted earlier, each share of MCPS will convert automatically on February 1, 2020 (the "mandatory conversion date") into between 0.7576 and 0.9091 shares of common stock (a conversion price range between $132 to $110 per share, respectively), subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion will be determined based on the average volume-weighted average price per share of the Company's common stock over the 20 consecutive trading day period beginning on, and including, the 22nd scheduled trading day immediately preceding the mandatory conversion date. Each share of MCPS can be converted prior to the mandatory conversion date at the option of the holder at the minimum conversion rate of 0.7576 or at specified rate, in the event of a fundamental change as defined in the certificate of designations of the MCPS. Dividends on the MCPS will be payable on a cumulative basis when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, at an annual rate of 7.25 percent on the liquidation preference of $100.00 per share. If declared, these dividends will be paid in cash, or, subject to certain limitations, in shares of Virtus' common stock (or a combination) on February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1 of each year, commencing May 1, 2017, and continuing to, and including, February 1, 2020.

At December 31, 2017, $6.5 million was included as dividends payable in liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
