NOTE 16 – Stock Repurchase Plan:

On May 2, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to 750,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock. There is no expiration date or other restriction governing the period over which the Company can make share repurchases under the program. All purchases under this program will be open market transactions.  The Company did not reacquire and retire shares of its common stock under this program during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. At December 31, 2022, the Company had 657,451 shares remaining under its common stock repurchase program. Shares purchased under the common stock repurchase program are constructively retired and returned to unissued status. The Company considers several factors in determining when to make share repurchases, including among other things, the cost of equity, the after-tax cost of borrowing, the debt to total capitalization targets and its expected future cash needs.
