In September 2025, we announced a second dividend increase during 2025, increasing the quarterly cash dividend by $0.10 per share to $0.70 per share, beginning with the quarterly dividend declared in third quarter 2025 and paid in fourth quarter 2025. Combined with previous increases, we have increased the dividend by 75% since the start of 2024. We currently expect to continue to pay dividends in accordance with our dividend policy; however, continued payment of cash dividends and changes in the Company's dividend policy will depend on the Company's earnings, financial condition, capital resources and capital requirements, alternative uses of capital, restrictions imposed by any existing debt, economic conditions and other factors considered relevant by our Board of Directors.
