Note 2 - Share Repurchase Program
Share Repurchase Program	2. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM On April 28, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) which became effective on May 1, 2014, under which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to 1.8 million shares of its outstanding common stock over a period not to exceed twelve months. The Share Repurchase Program has been extended through April 30, 2016, and the maximum number of shares authorized to be repurchased under the program has been increased to 3.4 million shares. Share repurchases under this program are made in accordance with SEC Rule 10b-18 using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions and block trades, or any combination of such methods, in compliance with applicable insider trading and other securities laws and regulations. With the exception of repurchases made during stock trading black-out periods under a 10b5-1 Plan, the timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases are determined at the Company’s discretion. The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended, terminated or modified by the Company at any time and for any reason.  The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares. During the three month period ended September 27, 2015, the Company repurchased 748,582 shares under this program for a total cost (excluding fees and commissions) of $3,357. During the nine month period ended September 27, 2015, the Company repurchased 2,225,437 shares under this program for a total cost (excluding fees and commissions) of $9,162. From the inception of the Share Repurchase Program on May 1, 2014 through October 28, 2015, the Company has repurchased 2,442,191 shares for an aggregate cost (excluding fees and commissions) of $9,877. The total remaining balance of shares authorized for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Program is 957,809 shares as of October 28, 2015.
