Share Repurchase Program

On November 21, 2002, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to 2.0 million shares of our common stock, from time to time, either directly or through agents, in the open market at prices and on terms satisfactory to us. Subsequent to that date, the Board of Directors increased the then remaining share repurchase authorization on seven separate occasions the last of which was on November 13, 2007. As of June 30, 2012 we had a remaining Board authorization to repurchase 1.1 million shares.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, we resumed our stock repurchase activity due to our ability to generate excess cash and the favorable stock price. Between 2012 and 2010, we repurchased and/or retired the following shares of our common stock on a trade date basis:

   
2012
   
2011

For the fiscal years presented above, we funded our purchases of treasury stock with existing cash on hand and cash generated through current period operations. All of our common stock repurchases and retirements are recorded as treasury stock and result in a reduction of shareholders’ equity.
