SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

NOTE 6 - SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

a.Share capital:

 

The Company’s ordinary shares are traded in the United States on the Nasdaq Global Market, under the symbol MNDO. Ordinary shares of the Company confer upon their holders the right to receive notice to participate and vote in general meetings of the Company and the right to receive dividends, if and when, declared.

 

b.Treasury shares:

 

During the period between September 2008 and December 2009, the Company has purchased an aggregate number of 3,165,092 ordinary shares for a total consideration of approximately $2.8 million. Currently, the Company does not have an active buyback plan. As of December 31, 2022, the remaining treasury shares are 1,535,684 which amounted to $1,058 thousand. The treasury shares are mainly utilized by the Company to settle exercise of options by employees.

 

c.Dividend:

 

Dividends paid per share in the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were $0.26, $0.26 and $0.24, respectively.

 

The Company paid dividends to its shareholders in the amounts of approximately $5.2 million, $5.2 million and $4.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

d.Stock option plan:

 

In 2011, the Board of Directors and the Company’s shareholders approved a share incentive plan (the “2011 Share Incentive Plan”). Under the 2011 Share Incentive Plan, options for up to 1,800,000 ordinary shares of NIS 0.01 par value can be granted to employees, directors, consultants or contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries.

 

Each option can be exercised to purchase one ordinary share. Immediately upon issuance, the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the options will confer on holders the same rights as the other ordinary shares.

 

The Board of Directors determines the exercise price and the vesting period of the options granted. The outstanding options granted under the abovementioned plan vest over 2-4 years on service basis. Options not exercised will expire five years after the day of grant.

 

The compensation costs charged against income for the 2011 Share Incentive Plan were comprised as follows:

Under Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, pursuant to an election made by the Company thereunder, Israeli employees (except for employees who are deemed “Controlling Members” under the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance) are subject to a lower tax rate on part of the capital gains accruing to them in respect of Section 102 awards. However, the Company is not allowed to claim as an expense for tax purposes the amounts credited to such employees.
