Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Company's common stock trades on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "SIGA."
There were 34 holders of record as of February 14, 2025. We believe that the number of beneficial owners of our common stock is substantially greater than the number of record holders, because a large portion of common stock is held in broker “street names.”
On March 12, 2024, the Board declared a special dividend of $0.60 per share on the common stock of the Company. The special dividend was paid on April 11, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 26, 2024. Any future payments of dividends on our common stock will be determined by our Board and will depend on our business conditions, financial results and other factors our Board deems relevant.
The Company did not repurchase any equity securities during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024.
There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 that have not been previously disclosed in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q or a current report on Form 8-K.
