Payments of Dividends [Abstract] |
Payment of Dividends | Payment of Dividends At the end of each fiscal year the Board reviews the financial performance and capital needed to support future growth to determine the amount of cash dividend, if any, which is appropriate. In 2018, the Company paid a $0.25 cash dividend on December 12, 2018 for a total of $2,250,537. In 2017, the Company paid a $0.13 cash dividend totaling $1,148,513. In 2016, no dividends were declared or paid by the Company. At the Market Offering On August 9, 2018, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement pursuant to which the Company had the ability to issue and sell, from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Shares"), par value $1.00 per share, with aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $10 million, through an “at-the-market” equity offering program under which BB&T Capital Markets, a division of BB&T Securities, LLC and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (the "Agents") were sales agents (the “ATM Program”). In 2018, the Company issued and sold 44,378 shares in connection with the ATM Program, with total net proceeds of $982,519.
