Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Universal Logistics Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Universal”) have been prepared by the Company’s management. In these notes, the terms “us,” “we,” “our,” or the “Company” refer to Universal and its consolidated subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the information required to be set forth therein. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and regulations and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of management’s estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Our fiscal year ends on December 31 and consists of four quarters, each with thirteen weeks.

The Company made certain immaterial reclassifications to items in its prior financial statements so that their presentation is consistent with the format in the financial statements for the period ended March 30, 2024. These reclassifications, however, had no effect on reported consolidated net income, comprehensive income, earnings per common share, cash flows, total assets or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.

In January 2024, the Company’s value-added business began performing specialty project development services for certain customers. Contract assets represent amounts for which the Company has recognized revenue in excess of billings pursuant to the revenue recognition guidance. As of March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, contract assets associated with certain contracts with customers recognized over time are included as contract assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets associated with other contracts with customers were reclassified from prepaid expenses and other on the consolidated balance sheets to contract assets.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company identified certain triggering events related to a component of the intermodal reporting segment. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other and ASC 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment, the Company evaluated certain indefinite and long lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment. The results of those procedures concluded that no impairments were present. After performing the evaluation, it was determined that a change in the estimated useful lives of certain definite lived intangible assets was appropriate and was adjusted during the period. The change resulted in additional amortization expense of $2.2 million recorded during the quarter ended March 30, 2024 ($1.7 million net of tax, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share).

Current Economic Conditions

The Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures included in its financial statements and accompanying notes and assesses certain accounting matters that require consideration of forecasted financial information. The Company's assumptions about future conditions important to these estimates and assumptions are subject to uncertainty, including the negative impact inflationary pressures can have on our operating costs. Prolonged periods of inflation could cause interest rates, equipment, maintenance, labor and other operating costs to continue to increase.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). The ASU expands disclosures related to a public entity's reportable segment and requires more enhanced information about significant segment expenses, including in interim periods. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, using a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, which is limited to financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU modifies income tax disclosures by requiring greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliations and disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2024, using a prospective approach. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, which is limited to financial statement disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company broadly groups its services into the following categories: truckload services, brokerage services, intermodal services, dedicated services and value-added services. We disaggregate these categories and report our service lines separately on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Truckload services include dry van, flatbed, heavy-haul and refrigerated operations. We transport a wide variety of general commodities, including automotive parts, machinery, building materials, paper, food, consumer goods, furniture, steel and other metals on behalf of customers in various industries.

To complement our available capacity, we provide customers with freight brokerage services by utilizing third-party transportation providers to move freight. Brokerage services also include full-service domestic and international freight forwarding and customs brokerage.

Intermodal services include rail-truck, steamship-truck and support services. Our intermodal support services are primarily short- to medium-distance delivery of rail and steamship containers between the railhead or port and the customer.

Dedicated services are primarily provided in support of automotive and retail customers using van equipment. Our dedicated services are primarily short-run or round-trip moves within a defined geographic area.

Transportation services are short-term in nature; agreements governing their provision generally have a term ofone year or less. They do not contain significant financing components. The Company recognizes revenue over the period transportation services are provided to the customer, including service performed as of the end of the reporting period for loads currently in-transit, in order to recognize the value that is transferred to a customer over the course of the transportation service.

We determine revenue in-transit using the input method, under which revenue is recognized based on the duration of time that has lapsed from the departure date (start of transportation services) to the arrival date (completion of transportation services). Measurement of revenue in-transit requires the application of significant judgment. We calculate the estimated percentage of an order’s transit time that is complete at period end, and we apply that percentage of completion to the order’s estimated revenue.

Value-added services, which are typically dedicated to individual customer requirements, include material handling, consolidation, sequencing, sub-assembly, cross-dock services, kitting, repacking, warehousing, returnable container management and specialty project development. Value-added revenues are substantially driven by the level of demand for outsourced logistics services and speciality project needs. Major factors that affect value-added service revenue include changes in manufacturing supply chain requirements and production levels in specific industries, particularly the North American automotive and Class 8 heavy-truck industries.

Revenue is recognized as control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for its services. For the majority of our programs, we have elected to use the “right to invoice” practical expedient to recognize revenue, reflecting that a customer obtains the benefit associated with value-added services as they are provided. The contracts in our value-added services businesses are negotiated agreements, which contain both fixed and variable components. The variability of revenues is driven by volumes and transactions, which are known as of an invoice date. Value-added service contracts typically have terms that extend beyond one year, and they typically do not include financing components.

Beginning in 2024, value-added services also includes specialty project development services for customers. The specialty project development service is generally accounted for as a single unit of account (i.e., as a single performance obligation). Revenue is recognized over time as the Company continuously transfers control of the project to the customer. Because we transfer control of the project over time, we recognize revenue to the extent of our progress towards completion of our performance obligations. We generally use the cost-to-cost method for these contracts, which measures progress towards completion for each performance obligation based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion for the applicable performance obligation. Incurred cost represents work performed, which corresponds with and thereby best represents the transfer of control to the customer. Revenue, including estimated fees or profits, is recorded proportionately as costs are incurred. Cost of operations consists of labor, materials, subcontractor costs, and other direct and indirect costs, and we include them in operating supplies and expenses on the consolidated statements of income. Due to the nature of the work we are required to perform under these types of contracts, estimating total revenue and cost at completion is complex, subject to many variables and requires significant judgment. Changes to the total estimated contract revenue or cost for a given project, either due to unexpected events or revisions to management’s initial estimates, are recognized in the period in which they are determined.

Revenue Recognition – continued

The following table provides information related to contract balances associated with our contracts with customers (in thousands):

We generally receive payment for performance obligations within 45 days of completion of transportation services and 65 days for completion of value-added services. As it relates to our specialty development project, we will receive payments in 120 equal monthly installments commencing the month following substantial completion of the project. Contract assets in the table above generally relates to revenue recognized in excess of billings for its specialty development project, as well as revenue in-transit at the end of the reporting period.

Marketable Securities

Marketable equity securities are carried at fair value, with gains and losses in fair market value included in the determination of net income. The fair value of marketable equity securities is determined based on quoted market prices in active markets, as described in Note 7.

The following table sets forth market value, cost basis, and unrealized gains on equity securities (in thousands):

The following table sets forth the gross unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s marketable securities (in thousands):

The Company didnot sell marketable equity securities during either of the thirteen-week week periods ended March 30, 2024 or April 1, 2023.

During the thirteen-week week periods ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, our marketable equity securities portfolio experienced a net unrealized pre-tax gain (loss) in market value of approximately $990,000 and $(13,000), respectively, which was reported in other non-operating income for the period.

Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities are comprised of the following (in thousands):

(6)

Debt

Debt is comprised of the following (in thousands):

(1) Our Revolving Credit Facility provides us with a revolving credit commitment of up to $400 million. We may borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility until maturity on September 30, 2027, and this indebtedness bears interest at index-adjusted SOFR, or a base rate, plus an applicable margin based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first-priority pledge of the capital stock of applicable subsidiaries, as well as first-priority perfected security interests in cash, deposits, accounts receivable, and selected other assets of the applicable borrowers. The Revolving Credit Facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, as well as financial covenants requiring minimum fixed charge coverage and leverage ratios, and customary mandatory prepayments provisions. At March 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility, and $362.2 million was available for borrowing on the revolver.

(2)Our UACL Credit Agreement provides for maximum borrowings of $90 million in the form of an $80 million term loan and a $10 million revolver. The term loan matures on September 30, 2027 and is repaid in consecutive quarterly installments. The remaining term loan balance is due at maturity. We may borrow under the revolving credit facility until maturity on September 30, 2027. Borrowings bear interest at index-adjusted SOFR, or a base rate, plus an applicable margin based on the borrowers’ leverage ratio. The UACL Credit Agreement is secured by a first-priority pledge of the capital stock of applicable subsidiaries, as well as first-priority perfected security interest in cash, deposits, accounts receivable, and selected other assets of the applicable borrowers. The UACL Credit Agreement includes customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, as well as financial covenants requiring minimum fixed charge coverage and leverage ratios, and customary mandatory prepayments provisions. At March 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility, and $10.0 million was available for borrowing on the revolver.

(3)Our Equipment Financing consists of a series of promissory notes issued by a wholly owned subsidiary. The equipment notes, which are secured by liens on specific titled vehicles, are generally payable in 60 monthly installments and bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 2.25% to 7.27%.

(4)Our Real Estate Facility facilitated a $165.4 million term loan, and the facility matures on April 29, 2032. Obligations under the facility are secured by first-priority mortgages on specific parcels of real estate owned by the Company, including all land and real property improvements, and first-priority assignments of rents and related leases of the loan parties. The credit agreement includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, and principal and interest are payable on the facility on amonthly basis, based on an annual amortization of 10%. The facility bears interest at Term SOFR, plus an applicable margin equal to 2.12%. At March 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility.

(6)

Debt – continued

(5)Our Margin Facility is a short-term line of credit secured by our portfolio of marketable securities. It bears interest at Term SOFR plus 1.10%. The amount available under the line of credit is based on a percentage of the market value of the underlying securities. At March 30, 2024, the maximum available borrowings under the line of credit were $5.7 million.

The Company is also party to an interest rate swap agreement that qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company executed the swap agreement to fix a portion of the interest rate on its variable rate debt. Under the swap agreement, the Company receives interest at Term SOFR and pays a fixed rate of 2.88%. The swap agreement has an effective date of April 29, 2022, a maturity date of April 30, 2027, and an amortizing notional amount of $80.8 million. At March 30, 2024, the fair value of the swap agreement was an asset of $2.6 million. Since the swap agreement qualifies for hedge accounting, the changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. See Note 7 for additional information pertaining to interest rate swaps.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and expanded disclosures with respect to fair value measurements.

FASB ASC Topic 820 also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

•

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

We have segregated all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date in the tables below (in thousands):

(7)

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – continued

The valuation techniques used to measure fair value for the items in the tables above are as follows:

•

Cash equivalents – This category consists of money market funds which are listed as Level 1 assets and measured at fair value based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

•

Marketable securities – Marketable securities represent equity securities, which consist of common and preferred stocks, are actively traded on public exchanges and are listed as Level 1 assets. Fair value was measured based on quoted prices for these securities in active markets.

•

Interest rate swap – The fair value of our interest rate swap is determined using a methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments (or receipts) and the discounted expected variable cash receipts (or payments). The variable cash receipts (or payments) are based on the expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observed market interest rate curves. The fair value measurement also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both the Company’s nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk.

Our Revolving Credit Facility, UACL Credit Agreement and Real Estate Facility consist of variable rate borrowings. We categorize borrowings under these credit agreements as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of these borrowings approximate fair value because the applicable interest rates are adjusted frequently based on short-term market rates.

For our Equipment Financing, the fair values are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. We categorize these borrowings as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value and estimated fair value of these promissory notes at March 30, 2024 is summarized as follows:

We have not elected the fair value option for any of our financial instruments.

(8)

Leases

As of March 30, 2024, our obligations under operating lease arrangements primarily related to the rental of office space, warehouses, freight distribution centers, terminal yards and equipment. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset over the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments resulting from the lease agreement. We recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the effective date of a lease agreement. These assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date, using our incremental borrowing rate as of the respective dates of lease inception, as the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable.

Our lease obligations typically do not include options to purchase the leased property, nor do they contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Options to extend or terminate an agreement are included in the lease term when it becomes reasonably certain the option will be exercised. As of March 30, 2024, we were not reasonably certain of exercising any renewal or termination options, and as such, no adjustments were made to the right-of-use lease assets or corresponding liabilities.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, short-term leases, are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense for short-term and long-term operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For facility leases, variable lease costs include the costs of common area maintenance, taxes, and insurance for which we pay the lessors an estimate that is adjusted to actual expense on a quarterly or annual basis depending on the underlying contract terms. For equipment leases, variable lease costs may include additional fees associated with using equipment in excess of estimated amounts.

Transactions with Affiliates

Matthew T. Moroun is Chair of our Board of Directors and his son, Matthew J. Moroun, is a member of our Board of Directors. Certain Moroun family trusts beneficially own a majority of our outstanding shares. Matthew T. Moroun is trustee of these trusts with investment authority over the shares, and Frederick P. Calderone, a member of our Board of Directors, is special trustee of these trusts with voting authority over the shares. The Moroun family also owns or significantly influences the management and operating policies of other businesses engaged in transportation, insurance, business services, and real estate development and management. In the ordinary course of business, we procure from these companies certain supplementary administrative support services, including legal, human resources, tax, and IT infrastructure services. The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and approves related party transactions. The cost of these services is based on the actual or estimated utilization of the specific service.

We also purchase other services from our affiliates. Following is a schedule of cost incurred and included in operating expenses for services provided by affiliates for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023 (in thousands):

We pay the direct variable cost of maintenance, fueling and other operational support costs for services delivered at our affiliate’s trucking terminals that are geographically remote from our own facilities. Such costs are billed when incurred, paid on a routine basis, and reflect actual labor utilization, repair parts costs or quantities of fuel purchased.

We lease 29 facilities from related parties. Our occupancy is based on either month-to-month or contractual, multi-year lease arrangements that are billed and paid monthly. Leasing properties from a related party affords us significant operating flexibility; however, we are not limited to such arrangements. See Note 8, “Leases” for further information regarding the cost of leased properties.

We purchase employee medical, workers’ compensation, property and casualty, cargo, warehousing and other general liability insurance from an insurance company controlled by our controlling shareholder. In our Consolidated Balance Sheets, we record our insured claims liability and the related recovery in insurance and claims, and other receivables. At March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were $16.1 million and $14.3 million, respectively, included in each of these accounts for insured claims.

At March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, amountsdue to affiliates were $23.3 million and $20.7 million, respectively.

During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2024, we purchased trailers from an affiliate totaling $1.6 million. There wereno such purchases made during the thirteen weeks ended April 1, 2023.

In June 2022, we executed a real estate contract with an affiliate to acquire a multi-building, office complex located in Warren, Michigan for $8.3 million. The purchase price was established by an independent, third-party appraisal. During 2022, the Company made an initial deposit of $200,000 and paid the balance at closing in the first quarter of 2023.

Services provided by Universal to Affiliates

We periodically assist our affiliates by providing selected transportation and logistics services in connection with their specific customer contracts or purchase orders. We may also lease facilities to our affiliates on an as-needed basis. Truck fueling and administrative expenses are presented net in operating expense. Following is a schedule of services provided to affiliates for the thirteen weeks and ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023 (in thousands):

At March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, amountsdue from affiliates were $1.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Stock Based Compensation

In February 2024, we granted 21,105 shares of restricted stock under our equity plan to certain employees, including 5,160 shares to our Chief Executive Officer and 5,223 shares to our Chief Financial Officer. The restricted stock awards have a grant date fair value of $31.96 per share, based on the closing price of our stock. The shares will vest in four equal installments on each March 15 in 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028, subject to their continued employment with us.

In May 2023, we granted 3,549 shares of common stock under our equity plan to non-employee directors. These restricted stock awards have a fair value of $25.42 per share, based on the closing price of our stock on the grant date, and vested immediately.

In March 2023, we granted 34,611 shares of restricted stock under our equity plan to certain employees, including 9,134 shares to our Chief Executive Officer and 8,441 shares to our Chief Financial Officer.

A grantee’s vesting of restricted stock awards may be accelerated under certain conditions, including retirement.

(10)

Stock Based Compensation – continued

The following table summarizes the status of our non-vested shares and related information for the period indicated:

In the thirteen week periods ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the total grant date fair value of vested shares recognized as compensation costs was $0.7 million and $0.2 million, respectively. As of March 30, 2024, there was approximately $2.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements. That cost is expected to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period. As a result, we expect to recognize stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million in 2025, $0.8 million in 2026, $0.6 million in 2027, and $0.4 million in 2028.

(11)

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share amounts are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding outstanding non-vested restricted stock. Diluted earnings per common share include dilutive common stock equivalents determined by the treasury stock method. For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, there were 21,011 and 33,348 weighted average non-vested shares of restricted stock, respectively, included in the denominator for the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

No shares of non-vested restricted stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share due to anti-dilution during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2024 or April 1, 2023.

(12)

Dividends

On February 14, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.105 per share of common stock, payable on April 1, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 4, 2024. Declaration of future cash dividends is subject to final determination by the Board of Directors each quarter after its review of our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, any legal or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant.

(13)

Segment Reporting

We report our financial results infour distinct reportable segments: contract logistics, intermodal, trucking, and company-managed brokerage, which are based primarily on the services each segment provides. This presentation reflects the manner in which management evaluates our operating segments, including an evaluation of economic characteristics and applicable aggregation criteria.

Operations aggregated in our contract logistics segment deliver value-added and/or dedicated transportation services to support in-bound logistics to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and major retailers on a contractual basis, generally pursuant to terms of one year or longer. Our intermodal segment is associated with local and regional drayage moves coordinated by company-managed terminals using a mix of owner-operators, company equipment and third-party capacity providers (broker carriers). Operations aggregated in our trucking segment are associated with individual freight shipments coordinated primarily by our agents using a mix of owner-operators, company equipment and broker carriers. Our company-managed brokerage segment provides for the pick-up and delivery of individual freight shipments using broker carriers, coordinated by our company-managed operations. Other non-reportable segments are comprised of the Company’s subsidiaries that provide support services to other subsidiaries.

Separate balance sheets are not prepared by segment, and we do not provide asset information by segment to the chief operating decision maker.

Segment Reporting – continued

The following tables summarize information about our reportable segments for the thirteen week periods ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023 (in thousands):

(14)

Treasury Stock

During the first quarter of 2024, we retired 4,722,877 shares of our treasury stock. Upon retirement of the treasury shares, we allocated the excess of the repurchase price over the par value of shares acquired to both retained earnings and paid-in capital. The portion allocated to paid-in capital was determined by applying the average paid-in capital per share, and the remaining portion was recorded to retained earnings. There was no effect on the Company’s overall equity position due to the retirement of treasury shares.

The Company accounts for treasury stock using the cost method. As of March 30, 2024, there wereno shares held in the treasury.

(15)

Commitments and Contingencies

Our principal commitments relate to long-term real estate leases and payment obligations to equipment vendors.

We are involved in certain other claims and pending litigation arising from the ordinary conduct of business. We also provide accruals for claims within our self-insured retention amounts. Based on the knowledge of the facts, and in certain cases, opinions of outside counsel, in our opinion the resolution of these claims and pending litigation will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, if we experience claims that are not covered by our insurance or that exceed our estimated claim reserve, it could increase the volatility of our earnings and have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

At March 30, 2024, approximately 32% of our employees were subject to collective bargaining agreements that are renegotiated periodically,45% of which are subject to contracts that expire in 2024.

(16)

Subsequent Events

On April 25, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.105 per share of common stock, payable on July 1, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 3, 2024. Declaration of future cash dividends is subject to final determination by the Board of Directors each quarter after its review of our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, any legal or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant.
