Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On August 14, 2013, the Company filed its Periodic Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013. The filing was announced in a press release issued on August 15, 2013. The press release included certain non-GAAP financial information in the form of proforma and adjusted balance sheets and results of operations and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial statements to the Company’s GAAP financial statements. The purpose of these non-GAAP financial statements and the associated reconciliations is to help investors better understand the effects of our previously announced transaction on July 3, 2013 with regard to our bond investments as well as the effects of our consolidated funds and ventures. The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The information in this Item 2.02 of Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

Share Buyback Plan

 

As discussed in the press release incorporated into the above Item this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1, on August 8, 2013, our Board of Directors authorized management to enter into an amended and restated stock repurchase program effective subsequent to the Company’s filing of its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, and in any event not earlier than August 16, 2013. The authorization permits the plan to be amended and restated to provide for the Company to purchase up to four million shares total, and up to 800,000 shares in any one calendar month at a price up to 100% of its common shareholders’ equity per share as shown on its most recently filed periodic report. The Company’s maximum price on the effective date of the amended and restated plan will be $1.53 based on the common shareholders’ equity as reported in the Company’s quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2013. No shares will be purchased pursuant to the amended and restated plan before August 26, 2013.
