On February 11, 2025, our Board of Directors approved a $0.63 per share common stock dividend for the first quarter of 2025. This reflects an indicative annual dividend rate of $2.52 per share. We expect to continue to pay cash dividends on our common stock; however, the declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the
discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our businesses, alternate investment opportunities, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

The number of shares available for future issuance includes amounts remaining under our 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2021 LTIP) and 2021 Equity Compensation Plan for Outside Directors and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and reflect a reduction for non-vested restricted stock units and performance share units (PSUs) (assumed at target payout). The number of shares available for future issuance may be increased or decreased depending on actual payouts for the PSUs based on achievement of targets and is increased by the number of shares that are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated without the issuance of shares. For additional discussion of specific plans concerning equity-based compensation, see Item 8. Note 18. Stock Based Compensation.
