The following discussion contains management's discussion and analysis of our
financial condition and results of operations and should be read together with
our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking
statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs and involve numerous
risks and uncertainties, including those described in "Part II, Item 1A. Risk
Factors" and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10­Q and in our other
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Actual results may
differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. You

Overview
We are the global leader in the design, development, manufacture and
distribution of performance-driven golf products, which are widely recognized
for their quality excellence. Today, we are the steward of two of the most
revered brands in golf-Titleist, one of golf's leading performance equipment
brands, and FootJoy, one of golf's leading performance wear brands. We own or
control the design, sourcing, manufacturing, packaging and distribution of our
products. In doing so, we are able to exercise control over every step of the
manufacturing process.
Our target market is dedicated golfers, who are the cornerstone of the worldwide
golf industry. These dedicated golfers are avid and skill-biased, prioritize
performance and commit the time, effort and money to improve their game. We
believe our focus on innovation and process excellence yields golf products that
represent superior performance and consistent product quality, which are the key
attributes sought after by dedicated golfers. Many of the game's professional
players, who represent the most dedicated golfers, prefer our products thereby
validating our performance and quality promise, while also driving brand
awareness. We seek to leverage a pyramid of influence product and promotion
strategy, whereby our products are the most played by the best players, creating
aspirational appeal for a broad range of golfers who want to emulate the
performance of the game's best players.
Our net sales are diversified by both product category and mix as well as
geography. Our product categories include golf balls, golf clubs, wedges and
putters, golf shoes, golf gloves, golf gear and golf outerwear and apparel. Our
product portfolio contains a favorable mix of consumable products, which we
consider to be golf balls and golf gloves, and more durable products, which we
consider to be golf clubs, golf shoes, golf gear and golf outerwear and
apparel. Our net sales are also diversified by geography with a substantial
majority of our net sales generated in five countries: the United States, Japan,
Korea, the United Kingdom and Canada. We have the following reportable segments:
Titleist golf balls; Titleist golf clubs; Titleist golf gear; and FootJoy golf
wear.
Impact of COVID-19 on our Business
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic related to the
novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"). To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across
multiple countries and resulted in government-ordered shutdowns of non-essential
businesses, travel restrictions and restrictions on public gatherings. This has
led to reduced consumer demand for golf-related products, the temporary closure
of golf courses, including on-course retail pro shops, the temporary closure of
off-course retail partner locations and the cancellation of professional golf
tour events. In response to the outbreak and to mitigate the spread of the
COVID-19 pandemic, we have, consistent with related orders from federal, state
and local governments, temporarily closed or limited operations in our North
American manufacturing facilities, distribution centers and corporate offices,
with associates working remotely where possible. Outside of the U.S., many
distribution centers, including those in Europe, are operating on a limited
basis. As our fiscal first quarter 2020 ended on March 31, 2020, we had business
disruptions to varying degrees across many regions. Our businesses in Asia were
adversely impacted earlier in the quarter and are at varying stages of recovery,
with Korea nearly fully recovered and other markets working their way towards
recovery. Our businesses in the United States, Europe, Canada and Australia
began to see the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic later in the quarter and
continue to be adversely impacted. Coinciding with the government-ordered
shutdown of non-essential businesses and restrictions on public gatherings,
consumer demand for our products slowed significantly in March, particularly in
the United States. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic has materially impacted
our results of operations for the first quarter of 2020 as described in more
detail under "Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020
Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019" below. While it is impossible
to quantify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect business disruptions
as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to have a material impact on
our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

We have taken several steps to strengthen our financial position and balance
sheet, bolster our liquidity position and provide additional financial
flexibility, including reducing payroll costs through associate furloughs and a
temporary reduction in senior management compensation, reducing discretionary
spending, reducing capital expenditures, suspending our share repurchase
program, temporarily suspending cash retainers of our Board of Directors and
drawing down $200.0 million on our revolving credit facility on April 1, 2020.
Given the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic situation, we cannot reasonably
estimate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of
operations, financial position and cash flows in the future. However, we do
expect that it will materially impact our operations going forward due to:
•        the impact of governmental orders and regulations that have been and may
         be imposed in response to the pandemic;

• potential changes in consumer behavior, including consumer confidence,

spending habits and rounds of golf played; and

• a slowdown in the U.S. and global economy.




Key Performance Measures
We use various financial metrics to measure and evaluate our business,
including, among others: (i) net sales on a constant currency basis,
(ii) Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis, (iii) Adjusted EBITDA margin on a
consolidated basis and (iv) segment operating income.
Since a significant percentage of our net sales are generated outside of the
United States, we use net sales on a constant currency basis to evaluate the
sales performance of our business in period over period comparisons and for
forecasting our business going forward. Constant currency information allows us
to estimate what our sales performance would have been without changes in
foreign currency exchange rates. This information is calculated by taking the
current period local currency sales and translating them into U.S. dollars based
upon the foreign currency exchange rates for the applicable comparable prior
period. This constant currency information should not be considered in isolation
or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). Our presentation of
constant currency information may not be consistent with the manner in which
similar measures are derived or used by other companies.
We primarily use Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis to evaluate the
effectiveness of our business strategies, assess our consolidated operating
performance and make decisions regarding pricing of our products, go to market
execution and costs to incur across our business. We present Adjusted EBITDA as
a supplemental measure of our operating performance because it excludes the
impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing
operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA in a manner consistent with the
term "Consolidated EBITDA" as it is defined in our credit agreement. Adjusted
EBITDA represents net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. adjusted
for interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and
other items defined in the agreement, including: share-based compensation
expense; restructuring charges; certain transaction fees; extraordinary, unusual
or non-recurring losses or charges; indemnification expense (income); executive
pension settlement; certain other non-cash (gains) losses, net and the net
income relating to noncontrolling interests. Adjusted EBITDA is not a
measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. It should not be
considered an alternative to net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp.
as a measure of our operating performance or any other measure of performance
derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA should not be
construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual
or non-recurring items, or affected by similar non-recurring items. Adjusted
EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider such
measure either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as
reported under U.S. GAAP. Our definition and calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is
not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other
companies due to different methods of calculation. For a reconciliation of
Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp.,
see "-Results of Operations" below.
We also use Adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated basis, which measures our
Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, because our management uses it to
evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, assess our consolidated
operating performance and make decisions regarding pricing of our products, go
to market execution and costs to incur across our business. We present Adjusted
EBITDA margin as a supplemental measure of our operating performance because it
excludes the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our
ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is not a measurement of
financial performance under U.S. GAAP. It should not be considered an
alternative to any measure of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
In addition, Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed as an inference that
our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items, or
affected by similar non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA margin has limitations
as an analytical tool, and you should not consider such measure

either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported
under U.S. GAAP. Our definition and calculation of Adjusted EBITDA margin is not
necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other
companies due to different methods of calculation.
Lastly, we use segment operating income to evaluate and assess the performance
of each of our reportable segments and to make budgeting decisions. Segment
operating income includes directly attributable expenses and certain shared
costs of corporate administration that are allocated to the reportable segments,
but excludes interest expense, net; restructuring charges; the non-service cost
component of net periodic benefit cost; transaction fees and other non-operating
gains and losses as we do not allocate these to the reportable segments.

Net Sales
Net sales decreased by $25.0 million, or 5.8%, to $408.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $433.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2019. On a constant currency basis, net sales decreased by $19.8
million, or 4.6%, to $413.9 million. The decrease in net sales on a constant
currency basis was due to a decrease of $24.1 million in Titleist golf ball
sales and a decrease of $9.1 million in FootJoy golf wear, primarily as a result
of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020, as
previously described. The remaining change in net sales was primarily due to the
acquisition of KJUS during the third quarter of 2019. The results of KJUS have
not been allocated to any of our reportable segments.
Net sales in the United States decreased by $19.4 million, or 8.4%, to $211.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $230.4 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2019. Overall, sales in the United States were
lower as a result of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Net sales
were lower across all reportable segments, with Titleist golf balls sales down
$17.3 million, FootJoy golf wear sales down $2.5 million and Titleist golf gear
sales down $1.9 million. The remaining change in net sales was primarily due to
the acquisition of KJUS during the third quarter of 2019.
Net sales in regions outside of the United States were also negatively impacted
by the COVID-19 pandemic. Net sales in regions outside of the United States
decreased by $5.6 million, or 2.8%, to $197.7 million for the three months ended

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Table of Contents

March 31, 2020 compared to $203.3 million for the three months ended March 31,
2019. On a constant currency basis, net sales in such regions decreased by $0.4
million, or 0.2%, to $202.9 million. In EMEA, the increase in net sales was
primarily due to the acquisition of KJUS, offset by lower sales volumes of
Titleist golf balls and FootJoy footwear. In Japan, the decrease in net sales
was primarily due to a decrease in sales of Titleist golf balls and FootJoy golf
wear. In Korea, the increase in net sales was driven by increased sales across
all categories with the exception of FootJoy golf wear. Sales in the rest of the
world were lower as a result of a decrease in Titleist golf balls and FootJoy
golf wear.
Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased by $21.2 million to $201.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $222.2 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019. Gross margin decreased to 49.2% for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 compared to 51.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The
decrease in gross profit resulted from a decrease of $20.1 million in gross
profit in Titleist golf balls and a decrease of $8.1 million in gross profit in
FootJoy golf wear, each primarily due to sales volume declines discussed above.
The remaining change in gross profit was primarily due to the acquisition of
KJUS, acquired in the third quarter of 2019.
The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by lower gross margins in the
Titleist golf ball and FootJoy golf wear segments. The Titleist golf ball
segment experienced unfavorable manufacturing overhead absorption related to the
temporary closure of our U.S. based golf ball manufacturing facilities and
FootJoy experienced lower footwear production volume at our footwear
manufacturing facility, both as a result of the negative impact of the COVID-19
pandemic.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses decreased by $2.7 million to $152.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $155.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $3.6 million in
advertising and promotional costs and $3.1 million in lower employee related
expenses, partially offset by an increase of $3.4 million in selling expenses
primarily related to our acquisition of KJUS. Overall SG&A included a $1.3
million favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates across
all expense categories and segments.
Research and Development
R&D expenses increased by $0.4 million to $13.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $12.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019. R&D expenses increased as a result of the acquisition of KJUS.
Intangible Amortization
Intangible amortization expense increased $0.2 million to $2.0 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $1.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to an increase in amortizing intangible
assets related to the acquisition of KJUS.
Restructuring Charges
During the first quarter of 2020, management approved a restructuring program to
refine our business model and improve operational efficiencies. This program
included both a voluntary retirement program and involuntary headcount
reductions. As part of this program we recorded $11.2 million in severance and
other benefits expense related to the voluntary retirement program, as well as,
$0.4 million in severance and other benefits related to our involuntary program
during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased by $0.8 million to $4.1 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019.
Other Expense (Income), net
Other expense (income), net increased by $1.7 million to other expense of $0.7
million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to other income of
$1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This increase was
primarily due to an increase in non-service related pension costs.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased by $4.7 million to $7.6 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $12.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019. Our effective tax rate ("ETR") was 46.0% for the three months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to 25.4% for the three months ended March 31,
2019. The increase in the ETR was primarily driven by the negative impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on our jurisdictional mix of earnings and the effect of
foreign currency losses incurred in the quarter that cannot be benefited, as
well as, a reduction in discrete tax benefits related to share-based
compensation expense.
Net Income Attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp.
Net income attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. decreased by $26.0 million to
$8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $34.9 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily as a result of a decrease
in income from operations as discussed above, partially offset by a decrease in
income tax expense.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $11.4 million to $52.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $64.2 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in income from operations. Adjusted
EBITDA margin decreased to 12.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020
compared to 14.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Segment Results
Titleist Golf Balls Segment
Net sales in our Titleist golf balls segment decreased by $25.5 million, or
18.0%, to $116.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to
$141.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On a constant currency
basis, net sales in our Titleist golf balls segment decreased by $24.1 million,
or 17.0%, to $117.6 million. This decrease was as a result of lower sales
volumes primarily due to the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the
United States along with lower sales volumes of Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls,
which were expected as these were in their second model year, partially offset
by a sales volume increase of our newly-introduced performance models.
Titleist golf balls segment operating income decreased by $16.5 million, or
83.8%, to $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to
$19.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in gross profit of $20.1 million, partially offset
by lower operating expenses. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to
the sales decline discussed above and unfavorable manufacturing overhead
absorption due to the closure of our United States based golf ball manufacturing
facility as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating expenses decreased as a
result of a $2.4 million decrease in advertising and promotional costs and lower
employee related costs.
Titleist Golf Clubs Segment
Net sales in our Titleist golf clubs segment increased by $1.9 million, or 2.1%,
to $93.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $91.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On a constant currency basis,
net sales in our Titleist golf clubs segment increased by $2.7 million, or 3.0%,
to $94.0 million. The increase in net sales was due to higher sales volumes of
our newly introduced SM8 wedges coupled with our Scotty Cameron Special Select
putters launched in the first quarter of 2020. This increase was partially
offset by the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and lower sales volumes
of drivers and fairways, which were in their second model year.
Titleist golf clubs segment operating income increased by $4.9 million to
operating income of $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020
compared to an operating loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by higher
gross profit of $2.8 million and lower operating expenses. The increase in gross
profit primarily resulted from increased sales volumes discussed above and
favorable manufacturing overhead absorption. Operating expenses decreased as a
result of lower promotional costs and lower employee related costs.
Titleist Golf Gear Segment
Net sales in our Titleist golf gear segment decreased by $1.7 million, or 3.8%,
to $43.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $45.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On a constant currency basis,
net sales in our Titleist golf gear segment decreased by $0.8 million, or 1.8%,
to $44.4 million. This decrease was primarily due to the negative impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on sales volumes in the United States and EMEA.

to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $9.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in operating
income was primarily driven by lower gross profit as a result of the sales
volume decrease discussed above partially offset by lower operating expenses as
a result of lower promotional costs and lower employee related costs.
FootJoy Golf Wear Segment
Net sales in our FootJoy golf wear segment decreased by $10.6 million, or 7.5%,
to $130.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $141.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On a constant currency basis,
net sales in our FootJoy golf wear segment decreased by $9.1 million, or 6.5%,
to $131.9 million. This decrease was primarily due to sales volume decreases
across all markets primarily due to the negative impact of the COVID-19
pandemic.
FootJoy golf wear segment operating income decreased by $5.8 million, or 28.9%,
to $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $20.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily
due to lower gross profit of $8.1 million, partially offset by lower operating
expenses. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by lower sales
volume as discussed above and unfavorable manufacturing costs partially offset
by lower operating expenses as a result of lower promotional costs and lower
employee related costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary cash needs relate to working capital, capital expenditures,
servicing of our debt, paying dividends, pension contributions and repurchasing
shares of our common stock. We expect to rely on cash flows from operations and
borrowings under our revolving credit facility and local credit facilities as
our primary sources of liquidity.
Our liquidity is impacted by our level of working capital, which is cyclical as
a result of the general seasonality of our business. Our accounts receivable
balance is generally at its highest starting at the end of the first quarter and
continuing through the second quarter, and declines during the third and fourth
quarters as a result of both an increase in cash collections and lower sales.
Our inventory balance also fluctuates as a result of the seasonality of our
business. Generally, our buildup of inventory starts during the fourth quarter
and continues through the first quarter and into the beginning of the second
quarter in order to meet demand for our initial sell­in during the first quarter
and reorders in the second quarter. Both accounts receivable and inventory
balances are impacted by the timing of new product launches.
As of March 31, 2020, we had $53.9 million of unrestricted cash (including $14.9
million attributable to our FootJoy golf shoe joint venture). On April 1, 2020,
we drew down $200.0 million under our revolving credit facility, thereby
increasing our unrestricted cash by such amount. As of March 31, 2020, 94.1% of
our total unrestricted cash was held at our non­U.S. subsidiaries. We manage our
worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our
subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a
cost effective basis. We are not aware of any restrictions on repatriation of
these funds and, subject to foreign withholding taxes, those funds could be
repatriated, if necessary. We have repatriated, and intend to repatriate, funds
to the United States from time to time to satisfy domestic liquidity needs
arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs related to
debt service requirements.
As noted previously, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our results of
operations for the first quarter of 2020 and we expect the related business
disruptions to continue to have a material impact on our business, results of
operations, financial position and cash flows. We have taken several steps to
preserve our liquidity position and to manage cash flows on an ongoing basis.
Subject to the length and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that
cash expected to be provided by operating activities, together with our cash on
hand and the availability of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and
our local credit facilities (subject to customary borrowing conditions) will be
sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months.
Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations is, however,
subject to many risks and uncertainties, including future economic trends and
conditions, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, demand for our products,
foreign currency exchange rates and other risks and uncertainties applicable to
our business, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2019 and further updated in "Risk Factors," Item 1A of Part II
included elsewhere in this report.
Debt and Financing Arrangements
As of March 31, 2020, we had $225.3 million of availability under our revolving
credit facility after giving effect to $9.7 million of outstanding letters of
credit. Additionally, we had $52.8 million available under our local credit
facilities. As part of the actions we have taken relating to the COVID-19
pandemic, we drew down $200.0 million under our revolving credit facility on
April 1, 2020. Following the draw down, we had approximately $367.5 million
outstanding and $22.4 million of available borrowings under our revolving credit
facility, after giving effect to $10.1 million of outstanding letters of credit.
Our credit agreement contains customary affirmative and restrictive covenants,
including, among others, financial covenants based on our leverage and interest
coverage ratios. The credit agreement includes customary events of default, the
occurrence of which, following any applicable cure period, would permit the
lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and
other obligations to be immediately due and payable. As of March 31, 2020, we
were in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement.
See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-Note-10-Debt and Financing
Arrangements" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2019 for a description of our credit facilities. Additionally, see "Risk Factors
- Risks Related to Our Indebtedness" as described in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and "Risk Factors," Item 1A of Part II
included elsewhere in this report for further discussion surrounding the risks
and uncertainties of our credit facilities.
Capital Expenditures
We made $5.7 million of capital expenditures during the three months ended
March 31, 2020. We plan to significantly reduce our capital expenditures until
there is more clarity on the length and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dividends and Share Repurchase Program
The Board of Directors has authorized us to repurchase up to an aggregate $100.0
million of our issued and outstanding common stock. Share repurchases may be
effected from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions,
including transactions with affiliates, with the timing of purchases and the
amount of stock purchased generally determined at our discretion consistent with
our general working capital needs and within the constraints of our credit
agreement. This program will remain in effect until completed or until
terminated by the Board of Directors. In connection with this share repurchase
program, we entered into an agreement with Magnus Holdings Co., Ltd. ("Magnus"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of Fila Holdings Co., to purchase from Magnus an equal
amount of our common stock as we purchase on the open market, up to an aggregate
of $24.9 million, at the same weighted average per share price.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased 243,894 shares of
common stock on the open market at an average price of $28.60 for an aggregate
of $7.0 million. As a result of these purchases, we recorded an additional
liability to repurchase additional shares of common stock from Magnus of $7.0
million (243,894 shares of common stock) bringing the total liability to $8.8
million (299,894 shares of common stock) as of March 31, 2020. Excluding the
impact of the share repurchase liability, as of March 31, 2020, we had $63.7
million remaining under the current share repurchase program, including the
$11.1 million related to the Magnus share repurchase agreement. See "Notes to
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements-Note 9-Common Stock," Item
1 of Part I, included elsewhere in this report, for disclosures related to the
Magnus share repurchase liability.
In April 2020, we announced that we were suspending stock repurchases in light
of the COVID-19 pandemic. We have the ability to resume repurchases if we deem
circumstances warrant.
During the first quarter of 2020, we paid dividends on our common stock of $11.5
million to our shareholders. During the second quarter of 2020, our Board of
Directors declared a dividend of $0.155 per common share to shareholders of
record as of June 5, 2020 and payable on June 19, 2020.
