Note 17. Stockholders’ Equity

Authorized Stock

The Company has 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share, and 2,500,000 undesignated or “blank check” preferred stock, with a par value of $0.001, of which, 800,000 shares have been designated as Class A Convertible Preferred Stock, 585,000 shares have been designated as Class B Convertible Preferred Stock and 250,000 shares have been designated as 4.0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.

Repurchase Program

In March 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a repurchase program (the “2022 Repurchase Program”) through December 31, 2025, authorizing the repurchase of common stock and/or convertible senior notes in the amount of up to $100.0 million from time to time, on the open market or otherwise, in such quantities, at such prices, and in such manner as determined by the Company’s management at its discretion. The Company purchased an aggregate of 1,604,994 shares of its common stock under the Repurchase Program during the year ended December 31, 2022, at an average price of $23.63 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $37.9 million. These shares were returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. All share repurchases were made using cash resources and are reported in the period based on the settlement date of the applicable repurchase.

In July 2024, May 2024 and September 2023, the Company repurchased $15.0 million, $10.0 million and $31.3 million, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes for a repurchase price of $12.9 million, $8.7 million and $25.0 million, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The repurchases were made pursuant to the 2022 Repurchase Plan.

In August 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a Repurchase Program through December 31, 2027, authorizing the repurchase of common stock and/or convertible senior notes in the amount of up to $200.0 million from time to time, on the open market or otherwise, in such quantities, at such prices, and in such manner as determined by the Company’s management at its discretion (the “2024 Repurchase Program” and, together with the 2022 Repurchase Program, the “Repurchase Programs”). The size and timing of any repurchase will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, general market and economic conditions, and applicable legal requirements. The authorized amount under the 2024 Repurchase Program was in addition to the 2022 Repurchase Program and did not modify the 2022 Repurchase Program.

Additionally, in August 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $160.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes for a cash repurchase price of $141.6 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The repurchase was made pursuant to the 2024 Repurchase Program.

There were no shares of common stock repurchased during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company has approximately $186.2 million in principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes outstanding and has approximately $73.9 million of repurchase authorization available under the Repurchase Programs.  

Series C Preferred Stock

The Series C Preferred Stock ranks senior to the shares of the Company’s common stock, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Company (a “Liquidation”). The Series C Preferred Stock has the following rights, preferences and privileges:

Dividend Rights. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock (the “Holders”) are entitled to dividends at the rate of 4.0% per annum, paid-in-kind, accruing daily and paid quarterly in arrears when and if declared by the Board of Directors. The Holders are also entitled to participate in dividends declared or paid on the common stock on an as-converted basis. The Company and Holders do not have the option to pay dividends in kind, in cash, or in other form. Paid in-kind dividends for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were $8.0 million, $8.0 million and $8.2 million, respectively.

Liquidation Preference. Upon a Liquidation, each share of Series C Preferred Stock is entitled to receive an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) $1,000 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends and (ii) the amount that the Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock would have been entitled to receive at such time if the Series C Preferred Stock were converted into common stock (the “Liquidation Preference”).

Conversion Features. The Series C Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the Holders at any time into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $38.6152 per share and a conversion rate of 25.90 shares of common stock per share of Series C Preferred Stock. The conversion price is subject to certain customary adjustments in the event of certain adjustments to the Company’s common stock, including stock dividends, splits, combinations, tender offers, and exchange offers. On February 5, 2021, 50,000 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock were converted, which resulted in the issuance of 1,312,860 shares of common stock and related expenses of $1.8 million.

Subject to certain conditions, the Company may at its option require conversion of all of the outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred Stock to common stock if, for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date the Company notifies the Holders of the election to convert, the closing price of the Common Stock is at least 150% of the conversion price.

Redemption Rights. The Company may redeem the Series C Preferred Stock for cash, as follows:

(1)At any time beginning five years after October 1, 2020 (but prior to six years after the Closing Date), all of the Series C Preferred Stock at a price equal to 105% of the purchase price paid plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.
(2)At any time beginning six years after October 1, 2020, all of the Series C Preferred Stock at a price equal to 100% of the purchase price paid plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.

Upon a “Fundamental Change” (involving a change of control or de-listing of the Company as further described in the Certificate of Designation), each Holder has the right to require the Company to redeem all or any part of the Holder’s Series C Preferred Stock for an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. If the Company does not have sufficient funds legally available to pay the repurchase price, then the Company is required to (a) pay the maximum amount of the repurchase price that can be paid out of funds legally available for payment, and (b) purchase any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock not purchased because of the foregoing limitations at the repurchase price as soon as practicable after the Company is able to make such purchase out of assets legally available for the purchase of such shares. If the Company fails to pay the repurchase price in full when due, then the Company will pay dividends on such shares not repurchased at a rate of 5.5% per annum until such shares are repurchased, payable quarterly in arrears.

Voting Rights. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are generally entitled to vote with the holders of the shares of common stock on an as-converted basis, subject to certain Nasdaq voting limitations, if applicable. Also, the consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred Stock is required with respect to (i) amendments to the Company’s organizational documents that have an adverse effect on the Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, and (ii) issuances by the Company of securities that are senior to, or equal in priority with, the Series C Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock have the right to nominate for election one member to the board of directors of the Company for so long as they hold 66.67% of the Series C Preferred Stock initially issued to them.

Registration Rights. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock have certain customary registration rights with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock and the shares of common stock into which they are converted, pursuant to the terms of a registration rights agreement. The Company is required to file within 90 days of the Closing Date and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to go effective as promptly as practicable, a registration statement covering the sale or distribution of common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. In December 2020, the Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement to register the resale of the common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.
