On December 17, 2021 a share repurchase program was authorized under which the Company may repurchase up to an aggregate of $5 million of its common shares. Share repurchases under this program were authorized to begin immediately. The program does not have an expiration date. Any repurchases would be funded using cash on hand and cash from operations. The actual timing, manner and number of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management and the Board of Directors at their discretion, and will depend on several factors, including the market price of the Company’s common shares, general market and economic conditions, alternative investment opportunities, and other business considerations in accordance with applicable securities laws and exchange rules. The authorization of the share repurchase program does not require the Company to acquire any particular number of shares and repurchases may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has completed no share repurchases under this program.
