Stock Repurchase Program

The Company’s Board has approved a stock repurchase program (the “Stock Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase shares of its common stock. The Stock Repurchase Program has no expiration date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company repurchased 471,500 and 764,825 shares, respectively, of its common stock at an average purchase price of $15.00 and $17.90, per share, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $7.1 million and $13.7 million, respectively, pursuant to its Stock Repurchase Program. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had a total authority of $35.8 million available for purchase of shares of its common stock pursuant to its Stock Repurchase Program. The Company may repurchase its common stock in open market purchases from time to time, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, pursuant to Rule 10b‑18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The timing and amount of any additional shares to be repurchased will depend upon a variety of factors, including market and business conditions. Repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time or from time to time without prior notice. The Stock Repurchase Program will continue until otherwise modified or terminated by the Company’s Board at any time in its sole discretion.

On May 23, 2018, the Company’s Board approved granting to each non-employee director an equity grant with an aggregate fair market value of $50,000 or, at the director’s election, its cash equivalent. On July 2, 2018, 2,778 shares of restricted stock were granted to one of the Company’s directors pursuant to the Board’s May 23, 2018 approval and the Company’s 2015 Performance and Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). This restricted stock will vest on the date of the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2019 Annual Meeting”) and is subject to forfeiture upon termination of service on the Board prior to the 2019 Annual Meeting. Three non-employee directors elected to receive cash in lieu of the stock.

On May 25, 2017, the Company’s Board approved granting to each non-employee director an equity grant with an aggregate fair market value of $50,000 or, at the director’s election, its cash equivalent. On July 3, 2017, 5,334 shares of restricted stock were granted to two of the Company’s directors pursuant to the Board’s May 25, 2017 approval and the Company’s 2015 Plan. This restricted stock vested on May 23, 2018, the date of the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Four non-employee directors elected to receive cash in lieu of the stock.

For each of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded expense of less than $0.1 million, related to restricted stock awards to the Company’s directors.

On March 15, 2018, 9,956 shares, net of shares withheld for taxes, of restricted stock were granted to four of the Company’s NEOs. The restricted stock vested immediately. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded expense of $0.2 million related to restricted stock awards to the Company’s NEOs.
