On July 6, 2022 the Alta Equipment Group Inc. (“Alta” or “the Company”) Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved the initiation of a regular quarterly cash dividend for each of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”). The common stock dividend is $0.057 per share, or approximately $0.23 per share on an annualized basis. The first common stock dividend will be payable on August 31st, 2022 to shareholders of record as of August 15th, 2022. The continuation of future cash dividends will be determined by the Board, at its sole discretion, after review of the Company’s financial performance and other factors, and is dependent on earnings, operations, capital requirements, general financial condition of the Company and general business conditions.

In addition to its approval of the common stock dividend detailed above, on July 6, 2022 the Company's Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing Alta to repurchase shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of not more than $12.5 million. The share repurchase program is in accordance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. Subject to applicable rules and regulations, the Company intends to repurchase shares of its common stock from time-to-time in the open market or by negotiated transactions. Such purchases will be at times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate, based on market conditions, cash reserves, cash flow and the balancing of uses of cash for operations, growth, and share repurchase. The amount and timing of repurchases will be based on a variety of factors, including stock acquisition price, regulatory limitations and other market and economic factors. No limit was placed on the duration of the repurchase program. The stock repurchase program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares, and the Company may terminate the repurchase program at any time.
