ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.
On June 13, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a stock repurchase program. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and hereby incorporated by reference. The Board authorized a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may spend up to $25,000,000 over a 12 month period to repurchase, in open market of private transactions, outstanding common stock and/or series A convertible preferred stock. The timing, manner, price and amount of securities to be repurchased will be determined at management’s discretion, in accordance with applicable securities rules regarding issuer repurchases. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any specific amount of securities and can be modified or terminated at any time without notice. Repurchases under this program are expected to be funded from one or a combination of existing cash balances, future free cash flow and indebtedness. Shares repurchased under the program are expected to be retired stock.
