On August 2, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program ("Repurchase Authorization") under which the Company could repurchase up to $50 million of the Company's common stock through December 31, 2023. The Company started repurchasing shares under this program in the fourth quarter of 2021. Repurchases under the Repurchase Authorization were made from time to time at the Company's discretion. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased depended on a variety of factors, including: timing of procurement orders under government contracts; alternative opportunities for strategic uses of cash; the stock price of the Company’s common stock; market conditions; alternative capital management uses of cash; and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of common stock under the Repurchase Authorization for approximately $7.5 million. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded approximately $0.1 million of excise tax associated with the repurchase of common stock.

 

On December 31, 2023, the Repurchase Authorization expired. 

 

On March 12, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.60 per share on the common stock of the Company, which resulted in an overall dividend payment of approximately $43 million. The special dividend was paid on April 11, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 26, 2024.
