On February 24, 2015, TeleTech’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend equal to $.18 per share, payable on March 16, 2015 to shareholders of record as of March 6, 2015.  Based on currently available information, the company intends to make dividend declarations on a semi-annual basis, subject to company’s performance, cash flow generation, and other liquidity factors.

 

On February 25, 2015 TeleTech also issued a press release announcing that TeleTech’s Board of Directors approved an increase of $25.0 million in the funding available for TeleTech share repurchases to be made pursuant to the company’s previously announced share repurchase program.  Repurchases under the program will continue to be made through the combination of a 10b5-1 automatic trading plan, open market purchases or private transactions, in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The timing of any repurchases and the exact number of shares of common stock to be purchased will be determined by TeleTech’s management, in its discretion, and will depend upon market conditions, stock price, company liquidity and other factors.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, related party repurchases, if any, will be performed pursuant to the approval of the Board of Directors.

 

A copy of the press release announcing the cash dividend and the additional stock repurchase funding authorization is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this current report on Form 8-K.
