Tender Offer

On August 28, 2013, the Company announced a tender offer to purchase up to $35.75 million in value of shares of its common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a price not greater than $6.50 nor less than $5.75 per share, to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest (the "Offer"). On September 26, 2013, the Company amended the Offer (the "Amended Offer") to increase the price range at which it would purchase its common stock to a range of not greater than $7.00 nor less than $6.50 per share and to decrease the dollar amount of the Offer to $25.0 million. The Amended Offer was completed on October 15, 2013, with the Company purchasing approximately 1.0 million shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $7.00 per share, for an aggregate cost of approximately $6.9 million, excluding fees and expenses related to the Amended Offer. The 1.0 million shares represented approximately 3.1% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock at that time. The Company financed the Amended Offer from borrowings under the Amended Term Loan under its existing Credit Facility (see Note 4).    

On March 21, 2012, the Company completed a tender offer to purchase 11.0 million shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $5.00 per share, for an aggregate cost of approximately $55.0 million, excluding fees and expenses relating to the tender offer. The 11.0 million shares accepted for purchase represented approximately 27% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock at that time.

Share Repurchase Plan

Under the Company’s share repurchase plan, the Company may buy back shares of its outstanding stock either on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions and trading restrictions. During the quarter ended September 27, 2013, the Company did not buy back any shares under its share repurchase plan. During the nine months ended September 27, 2013, the Company repurchased approximately 124 thousand shares of its common stock at an average price of $4.80, for a total cost of approximately $594 thousand. As of September 27, 2013, the Company had approximately $5.0 million available under its share repurchase plan authorization.

Subsequent to September 27, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional $5.0 million of the Company's common stock, thereby increasing the program size to $85.0 million, and leaving $10.0 million available under its share repurchase plan authorization.
