Dividends

On July 25, 2012, we announced that our Board of Directors approved the initiation of a cash dividend to our shareholders. The first quarterly dividend of $0.12 per common share was paid on August 21, 2012. On May 5, 2020, we announced that our Board of Directors has suspended quarterly dividend payments on our common stock, in order to preserve liquidity during the COVID-19 crisis. On April 21, 2022, our Board of Directors reinitiated a quarterly cash dividend to our common stock shareholders. Any future dividends are subject to Board approval.
