On November 29, 2018, we announced that our Board approved a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $4 million of our outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share, over a one-year period. Repurchases under the program were to be made in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means in compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC; however, we had no obligation to repurchase shares and the timing, actual number, and value of shares to be repurchased was subject to management’s discretion and depended on the Company’s stock price and other market conditions. Our Board could have terminated the repurchase program at any time while it was in effect.  We intended to retire any repurchased shares.  The term of our repurchase program expired as of the quarter ended December 31, 2019.  There were no shares repurchased during the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
