Principal Market
Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the “REYN” symbol and began “regular way” trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on January 31, 2020. Prior to that date, there was no public trading market for our common stock.

We expect that our practice of paying quarterly cash dividends on our common stock will continue, although the payment of future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, contractual restrictions (including under our Term Loan Facility) and other factors.
Equity Compensation Plan Information

Use of Proceeds from Sale of Registered Securities
On February 4, 2020, we completed our IPO, in which we sold 54,245,500 shares of common stock, including the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase 7,075,500 additional shares, at a public offering price of $26.00 per share for an aggregate price of $1,410 million. We received net proceeds of $1,336 million in the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $67 million and other expenses of $5 million. The offer and sale of the shares in the IPO were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 234731 ), which was declared effective by the SEC on January 30, 2020. Upon completion of the sale of the shares of our common stock, the IPO terminated. There has been no material change in the use of proceeds from our IPO as described in our final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 31, 2020 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC acted as representatives of the several underwriters for the offering.
