Preferred Stock

 

At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 600,000 shares and 650,000 shares, respectively, of our Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock outstanding with a stated face value and liquidation value of $1,000 per share. As described in Note 4, “Long Term Debt,” on June 30, 2026, we issued $70 million of additional 2033 1L Notes in a private placement transaction, of which $30 million was used to repurchase an aggregate of 50,000 shares of Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock having an aggregate liquidation preference of $50 million for a total purchase price of $30 million plus accrued but unpaid dividends. We recognized a $20 million deemed contribution on the repurchase of the Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the calculation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and on our condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

 

Holders of shares of the Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock are entitled to receive mandatory and cumulative dividends paid quarterly in cash or, at the Company’s option, paid quarterly in kind by issuance of additional shares of Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock. The per-share amount of such quarterly mandatory and cumulative dividends will be calculated by multiplying the face value by 8% per annum if the dividends are to be paid in cash, or 8.5% per annum if such dividends are to be paid in additional shares of Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock (“PIK Election Dividends”). If the Company elects to pay any portion of accrued dividends with PIK Election Dividends, it will be prohibited from repurchasing, redeeming or paying dividends on any stock that is junior to the Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock through the end of that quarter and the subsequent two quarters, subject to certain exceptions.
