Share Repurchase Program

 

In May 2017, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which repurchases of common stock up to $225.0 million may occur from time to time, in amounts, at prices, and at such times as the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other considerations. No repurchases occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2019. Any future repurchases will be funded from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility. This share repurchase program expires on May 11, 2019.

Subsequent dividend declarations and the establishment of record and payment dates for such future dividend payments, if any, are subject to the Board of Directors' continuing determination that the dividend policy is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders. The dividend policy may be suspended or cancelled at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

 

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

Comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in other comprehensive income, but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity, net of tax. The Company’s other comprehensive income is composed primarily of foreign currency translation adjustments and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans.
