On October 5, 2011, the Board of Directors of Epoch Holding Corporation (the "Company") declared an increase in the quarterly per share dividend rate on the Company’s Common Stock, from $0.06 per share to $0.08 per share.
The dividend is payable on November 11, 2011 to all shareholders of record at the close of business on October 28, 2011.
The Company expects quarterly dividends to be paid in February, May, August and November of each fiscal year. However, the actual declaration of future cash dividends, and the establishment of record and payment dates, will be subject to final determination by the Board of Directors each quarter after its review of the Company's financial performance.
Further, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional 350,000 shares of its outstanding common stock. These shares are in addition to the approximately 150,000 shares remaining as of October 4, 2011, under prior authorization. Subject to applicable law, the shares may be purchased from time to time in the open market and/or in privately negotiated transactions. Such purchases will be at times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate, based on factors such as prevailing market conditions, legal requirements and other business considerations.
A copy of the press release issued by the Company is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
