Issuance of Preferred Shares
Series A Preferred Stock
At the time of the Company’s initial public offering, the Company issued 250,000 shares of the Company’s non-voting convertible Series A preferred stock to Vert Capital for the acquisition of Genesis. As of March 31, 2024, a total of 167,972 shares of Series A preferred stock remained outstanding which can be converted into 33,461 shares of Class A common stock, at the discretion of the Series A stockholder.
Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock
On September 25, 2020, in connection with the acquisition of Sahara Holding Limited ("Sahara”), the Company issued 1,586,620 shares of Series B preferred stock and 1,320,850 shares of Series C preferred stock. The Series B preferred stock has a stated and liquidation value of $10.00 per share and pays a dividend out of the earnings and profits of the Company at the rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly. The Series B preferred stock is convertible into the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion price of $13.28 per share which was the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on September 25, 2020 (the “Conversion Price”). Such conversion may occur either (i) at the option of the holder at any time after January 1, 2024, or (ii) automatically upon the Company’s Class A common stock trading at 200% of the Conversion Price for 20 consecutive trading days (based on a volume weighted average price). The Series C preferred stock has a stated and liquidation value of $10.00 per share and is convertible into the Company’s Class A common stock at the Conversion Price either (i) at the option of the holder at any time after January 1, 2026, or (ii) automatically upon the Company’s Class A common stock trading at 200% of the Conversion Price for 20 consecutive trading days (based on a volume weighted average price).
To the extent not previously converted into the Company’s Class A common stock, the outstanding shares of Series B preferred stock shall be redeemable at the option of the holders at any time or from time to time commencing on January 1, 2024 upon, 30 days prior written notice to the holders, for a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of (a) ($10.00) multiplied by the number of shares of Series B preferred stock being redeemed (the “Redeemed Shares”), plus (b) all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Redeemed Shares. The Series C preferred stock is also subject to redemption on the same terms commencing January 1, 2026. The aggregate estimated fair value of the Series B and C preferred stock of $28.5 million was included as part of the total consideration paid for the purchase of Sahara.
As the redemption features in the Series B preferred stock and Series C preferred stock are not solely within the control of the Company, the Company has classified the Series B preferred stock and Series C preferred stock as mezzanine or temporary equity in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2024, a total of 1,586,620 and 1,320,850 shares of Series B and C preferred stock remained outstanding, respectively.
Common Stock
The Company’s authorized common stock consists of 1) 18,750,000 shares of Class A voting common stock and 2) 50,000,000 shares of Class B non-voting common stock. Class A and Class B common stock have the same rights except that Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share while Class B common stock has no voting rights. Upon any public or private sale or disposition by any holder of Class B common stock, such shares of Class B common stock would automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had 9,777,725 and 9,704,496 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. No Class B shares were outstanding as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Repurchase Plan
On February 14, 2023, the Board of Directors of Boxlight Corporation approved the Company’s establishment of a share repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”) authorizing the Company to purchase up to $15.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock. Pursuant to the Repurchase Program, the Company may, from time to time, repurchase its Class A common stock in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions. The timing and total amount of any repurchases made under the Repurchase Program will depend upon business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices, and other considerations. The authorization expires on January 26, 2027, may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of Class A common stock. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not utilized the Repurchase Program.
