ITEM 5: MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED S TOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Market Information Our common stock is traded on The NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol ULH. As of March 4, 2024, there were approximately 50 record holders of our common stock, based upon data available to us from our transfer agent. We believe, however, that we have a significantly greater number of shareholders because a substantial number of our common shares are held at the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation on behalf of our shareholders. Dividends We have a cash dividend policy that anticipates a regular dividend of $0.42 per share of common stock, payable in quarterly increments of $0.105 per share of common stock. In addition, under our current dividend policy, after considering the regular quarterly dividends made during the year, the Board of Directors also evaluates the potential declaration of an annual special dividend payable in the first quarter of each year. The Board of Directors did not declare a special dividend in the first quarter of 2024. Currently, we anticipate continuing to pay cash dividends on a quarterly basis, but we cannot guarantee that such dividends will be paid in the future. Future dividend policy and the payment of dividends, if any, will be determined by the Board of Directors in light of circumstances then existing, including our earnings, financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. Limitations on our ability to pay dividends are described under the section captioned “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Revolving Credit, Promissory Notes and Term Loan Agreements” in Item 7 of this Form 10-K. Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans See Part III, Item 12, “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Shareholder Matters” of this Annual Report for a presentation of compensation plans under which equity securities of the Company are authorized for issuance.
