DIVIDENDS

DIVIDENDS

Dividends are declared at the discretion of the Board. In January 2023 and 2022, the Company declared cash dividends of $0.12 and $0.10 per share, respectively, to holders of record of its Class A and Class B common stock. Dividends in the amount of $47.6 million and $39.9 million, respectively, were paid out during the three months ended February 26, 2023 and February 27, 2022.

The Company does not have an established dividend policy. The Board reviews the Company's ability to pay dividends on an ongoing basis and establishes the dividend amount based on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, current and projected cash flows and other factors, and any restrictions related to the terms of the Company’s debt agreements.

Subsequent to the Company's quarter end, a cash dividend of $0.12 per share was declared to holders of record of its Class A and Class B common stock at the close of business on May 4, 2023, for a total quarterly dividend of approximately $47 million.
