Item 8.01. Other Events.
On March 30, 2015, the Company announced that the Board has authorized the repurchase of up to 1,055,098 shares of the Company’s common stock, which represents approximately 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
In accordance with the Company’s internal restrictions on trading in the Company’s shares, no shares may be repurchased pursuant to the authorization until, at the earliest, the third business day after the Company files its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The authorization will expire on December 31, 2015 unless extended by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The authorization does not obligate the Company to purchase any particular number of shares at any given price per share at any time. The authorization may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of alternative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors deemed appropriate. These factors may also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases.
