18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Repurchase of Common Stock 

 

On February 24, 2026, Rocky Brands announced that its Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program of up to $7,500,000 of the Company's outstanding common stock, no par value per share. This repurchase program replaces the previous repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors that expired on February 24, 2026 and has a one year term expiring on February 23, 2027. 

 

Dividends Declared

 

On  February 17, 2026, Rocky Brands announced that its board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.155 per share of outstanding common stock, to be paid on  March 16, 2026 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on  March 2, 2026. The declaration and payment of future dividends and the establishment of future record dates and payment dates are subject to the quarterly determination of the board of directors.

 

Subsequent Event

 

On  February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") were unlawful. The ultimate availability, timing, and amount of any potential refunds associated with IEEPA tariffs previously paid by the Company remain highly uncertain and are subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. Following the Supreme Court's decision, the U.S. presidential administration announced its intention to invoke other laws to collect tariffs and announced new tariffs on imports from all countries, in addition to any existing non-IEEPA tariffs. There remains substantial uncertainty regarding the duration of existing and newly announced tariffs, potential changes or pauses to such tariffs, tariff levels, and whether additional tariffs or other retaliatory actions may be imposed, modified, or suspended, and the impacts of such actions on the Company's business. The Company continues to monitor and evaluate these developments and assess their potential impact on the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.
