Investor Verification Checklist
- Review Exhibit 99.1 for specific Q2 2018 revenue, net income, and earnings per share figures.
- Verify the total capital return to shareholders by combining the $0.48 dividend per share with the potential impact of the 400,000 share buyback.
- Confirm the Company's current liquidity position to assess the feasibility of the new 24-month repurchase program.
- Check for any updates on the previous repurchase program to ensure the 400,000 share limit is a fresh authorization and not a rollover of unutilized shares.
