On February 15, 2019, the management development and compensation committee of our board of directors approved the payout of 297,260 shares of our common stock in connection with the vesting of PSUs that were granted to certain employees on October 8, 2015. The shares paid out under the PSUs reflected our achievement of certain performance measures that were based on average return on invested capital and cumulative earnings per share, and revenue growth relative to a peer group of high-production public homebuilding companies over the three-year period from December 1, 2015 through November 30, 2018. Of the shares of common stock paid out, 147,382 shares or $3.3 million, were purchased by us in the 2019 first quarter to satisfy the recipients’ withholding taxes on the vesting of the PSUs. The shares purchased were not considered repurchases under the authorizations described below.

As of February 28, 2019, we were authorized to repurchase 2,193,947 shares of our common stock under a board of directors approved share repurchase program. We did not repurchase any of our common stock under this program in the three months ended February 28, 2019.

Unrelated to the share repurchase program, our board of directors authorized in 2014 the repurchase of not more than 680,000 shares of our outstanding common stock, and also authorized potential future grants of up to 680,000 stock payment awards under the KB Home 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (“2014 Plan”), in each case solely as necessary to settle outstanding stock appreciation rights awards granted under our Non-Employee Directors Compensation Plan. As of February 28, 2019, we have not repurchased any shares and no stock payment awards have been granted under the 2014 Plan pursuant to the board of directors authorization.

During each of the three-month periods ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, our board of directors declared, and we paid, a quarterly cash dividend of $.025 per share of common stock.
