Declaration and payment of any future dividends on shares of common stock will be at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. Stock Repurchases On January 12, 2016, the Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Company’s stock repurchase program first approved on July 28, 2015 from $15.0 million to $70.0 million. Repurchases are expected to be executed to the extent that the Company’s earnings and cash-on-hand allow, and will be made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. For all or a portion of the authorized repurchase amount, the Company may enter into one or more plans that are compliant with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act that are designed to facilitate these purchases. The stock repurchase program does not require the Company to acquire a specific number of shares, and may be suspended from time to time or discontinued. On May 16, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to proceed with the purchase of up to $8.0 million in shares of common stock under the foregoing stock repurchase program. In connection therewith, the Company was advised that George K. Broady, a director of the Company and beneficial owner of more than 5% of its outstanding shares of common stock, would participate in the stock repurchase program through The George K. Broady 2012 Irrevocable Trust (the “Broady Trust”) on a basis roughly proportional to his family’s ownership interest in the Company (See Note 10). During May 2019, the Company authorized its broker to proceed with the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market for a total purchase price of $4.7 million. The stock repurchases, which included both open market purchases and the purchase of shares from the Broady Trust, were completed May 31, 2019 and resulted in the Company purchasing a total of 612,729 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6.7 million, plus transaction costs. On August 6, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to proceed with additional purchases under the foregoing stock repurchase program in the open market. During August and September 2019, the Company purchased a total of 383,127 shares of common stock in the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $2.9 million, plus transaction costs. During December 2019, the Company purchased a total of 97,785 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $552,000, plus transaction costs. As of December 31, 2020, $21.9 million of the $70.0 million stock repurchase program approved on July 28, 2015 and increased on January 12, 2016 remained available for future purchases, inclusive of related estimated income tax. Restricted Stock At the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on April 7, 2016, the Company’s stockholders approved the Natural Health Trends Corp. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) to replace its 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. The 2016 Plan allows for the grant of various equity awards including incentive stock options, non-statutory options, stock, stock units, stock appreciation rights and other similar equity-based awards to the Company’s employees, officers, non-employee directors, contractors, consultants and advisors of the Company. Up to 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustment under certain circumstances) may be issued pursuant to awards granted.

On February 1, 2019, the Company granted 22,603 shares of restricted common stock under the 2016 Plan to certain employees for the purpose of further aligning their interests with those of its stockholders and settling fiscal 2018 performance incentives totaling $377,000. The shares vest on a quarterly basis over the next three years and are subject to forfeiture in the event of an employee’s termination of service to the Company under specified circumstances. On August 9, 2019, the Compensation ‎Committee amended the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTI Plan") to provide that all then unpaid cash benefits earned by currently employed ‎participants under the LTI Plan with respect to performance periods that concluded on or prior to December 31, 2018 ‎shall be paid in the form of an award of shares of restricted stock under the 2016 ‎Plan. Accordingly, on August 9, 2019, the Company awarded 1,117,485 shares of restricted common stock to ‎certain of its employees (subject to quarterly vesting for the three-year period following the date of award) in lieu of ‎aggregate unpaid cash benefits of $7.9 million earned under the LTI Plan for performance periods ending on or ‎prior to December 31, 2018.
