Stockholders' Equity Stockholders’ Equity
The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 400,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. The Company has an at-the-market equity offering program (the “$500 Million ATM Program”) pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million (approximately $200.8 million remaining as of June 30, 2025) in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company from time to time. Prior to the implementation of the $500 Million ATM Program, the Company had a previous at-the-market equity offering program (the “Previous $500 Million ATM Program”), which was substantially utilized as of August 27, 2024 and is no longer active. Actual sales under the $500 Million ATM Program, if any, will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock, determinations by the Company of the appropriate sources of funding for the Company and potential uses of funding available to the Company. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not issue any common stock under the $500 Million ATM Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,506,371 shares of common stock at a weighted average offering price of $67.71 per share under the $500 Million ATM Program, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $234.0 million and paying total compensation to the applicable sales agents of approximately $3.4 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company did not issue any common stock under the Previous $500 Million ATM Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,353,278 shares of common stock at a weighted average offering price of $64.00 per share under the Previous $500 Million ATM Program, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $148.4 million and paying total compensation to the applicable sales agents of approximately $2.2 million.
On March 27, 2024, the Company completed a public offering of 6,325,000 shares of common stock at a price per share of $62.00, which included the underwriters’ full exercise of their option to purchase an additional 825,000 shares. The net proceeds of the offering were approximately $387.1 million after deducting the underwriting discount and offering costs of approximately $5.0 million. The Company used the net proceeds for acquisitions.
In connection with the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 6, 2025, the Company granted a total of 14,195 unrestricted shares of the Company's common stock to its independent directors under the 2019 Plan with a grant date fair value per share of $56.36. The grant date fair value of the common stock was determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The Company recognized approximately $0.8 million in compensation costs for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 related to this issuance.
The Company has a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to 3,000,000 shares of its outstanding common stock from time to time through December 31, 2026. Purchases made pursuant to the program will be made in either the open market or in privately negotiated transactions as permitted by federal securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not repurchased any shares of common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program.
The Company has a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) maintained for the benefit of select employees and members of the Company’s Board of Directors, in which certain of their cash and equity-based compensation may be deposited. Deferred Compensation Plan assets are held in a rabbi trust, which is subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency. The shares held in the Deferred Compensation Plan are classified within stockholders’ equity in a manner similar to the manner in which treasury stock is classified. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the shares are not recognized. During both the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, no shares of common stock were deposited into the Deferred Compensation Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, 36,233 and 0 shares of common stock, respectively, were deposited into the Deferred Compensation Plan. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, no shares of common stock were withdrawn from the Deferred Compensation Plan.
On May 6, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2025 Plan, which replaces the 2019 Plan. As of June 30, 2025, there were 2,258,368 shares of common stock authorized for issuance as restricted stock grants, unrestricted stock awards or Performance Share awards under the 2025 Plan, of which 2,248,109 were remaining and available for issuance. The grant date fair value per share of restricted stock awards issued during the period from February 16, 2010 (commencement of operations) to June 30, 2025 ranged from $14.20 to $78.33. The fair value of the restricted stock that was granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was approximately $0.1 million and $4.3 million, respectively, and the vesting period for the restricted stock is typically between three and five years. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $15.7 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock issuances, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of approximately 2.7 years. The Company recognized compensation costs of approximately $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and approximately $3.7 million and $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to the restricted stock issuances.
