Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Our common stock trades on the NYSE under the trading symbol “FET.” As of February 29, 2024, there were approximately 45 common stockholders of record. In calculating the number of shareholders, we consider clearing agencies and security position listings as one shareholder for each agency or listing.
No dividends were declared or issued during 2023 or 2022, and we do not currently have any plans to pay cash dividends in the future. Our future dividend policy is within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, investment opportunities, and restrictions under our loan agreements.
Purchase of Equity Securities
In November 2021, our board of directors approved a program for the repurchase of outstanding shares of our common stock with an aggregate purchase amount of up to $10.0 million. Shares may be repurchased under the program from time to time, in amounts and at prices that the company deems appropriate, subject to market and business conditions, applicable legal requirements and other considerations. The program may be executed using open market purchases pursuant to Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), in privately negotiated agreements or by way of issuer tender offers, Rule 10b5-1 plans or other transactions. From the inception of the program through December 31, 2023, we have repurchased approximately 298 thousand shares of our common stock for aggregate consideration of $7.6 million. Remaining authorization under this program is $2.4 million.
No shares were purchased during the three months ended December 31, 2023.
