Item 8.01			Other Events.

On April 22, 2025, the Board authorized an additional stock repurchase program of up to $150 million of the Company’s common stock. The repurchase program supplements the Board’s prior authorization from March 2020, which had approximately $27 million of availability remaining at the end of the first quarter of 2025. The newly-authorized program is intended primarily to facilitate purchases of Company stock as a means to provide cash returns to stockholders, enhance stockholder returns, and manage the Company’s capital structure. Under its stock repurchase programs, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, shares of its outstanding common stock. Stock repurchases by the Company are subject to market conditions and other factors and may be commenced, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

The full text of the press release announcing the Board’s authorization of the stock repurchase program is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
