Note 16 – Subsequent Events

On January 19, 2016, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.09 per common share to be paid to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 4, 2016. The quarterly dividend payment was $4.4 million and was paid on February 18, 2016. In July 2003, our Board of Directors elected to begin declaring quarterly dividends on our common stock considering the tax treatment of dividends and adequate levels of Company liquidity.

On February 8, 2016, the Board appointed Anthony Melone as a director filling a previously existing vacancy until the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

During the first quarter and as of February 24, 2016, we have repurchased 0.6 million shares of our common stock through open market purchases at an average cost of $18.38 per share. We currently have the authority to purchase an additional 5.2 million shares of our common stock under the current plan approved by the Board of Directors.

We are currently evaluating the way the Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews and measures performance of the business. The conclusions of this evaluation may have an impact on our future presentation of our reportable segments.
