Share Repurchased and Withheld Share Repurchase Programs In December 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”) authorizing the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of the Company’s Common Stock through December 31, 2025. Under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, which took effect in December 2023, the Company may purchase its shares from time to time in privately negotiated transactions, through block trades, pursuant to open market purchases, or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the SEC. The amount and timing of purchases under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of the Company’s shares, trading volume, capital availability, Company performance and general economic and market conditions. The 2024 Share Repurchase Program can be suspended or discontinued at any time. No shares were repurchased by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2024. For the same period in 2023, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares of Common Stock at a total cost of $32.9 million, which included $0.2 million of excise taxes payable on shares repurchased, for an average price of $31.88 per share. As of March 31, 2024, $95.2 million was available for future repurchases under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, and a cumulative total of 11.3 million shares of Common Stock had been repurchased under programs authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors at a total cost of $295.8 million for an average price of $26.26 per share.
