| Shareholders' Equity |
15. Shareholders’ Equity At September 26, 2015, there were 80,000,000 shares of common stock ($0.01 par value) authorized, of which 11,908,317 were outstanding, and 100,000,000 shares of non-voting Class A common stock ($0.01 par value) authorized, of which 36,462,299 were outstanding. The preferences and relative rights of the Class A common stock are identical to common stock in all respects, except that the Class A common stock generally will have no voting rights unless otherwise required by Delaware law. There are 3,000,000 shares of Class B stock ($0.01 par value) authorized, of which 1,652,262 were outstanding at September 26, 2015 and September 27, 2014. The voting powers, preferences and relative rights of the Class B stock are identical to common stock in all respects except that (i) the holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share and the holders of Class B stock are entitled to the lesser of ten votes per share or 49% of the total votes cast, (ii) stock dividends on common stock may be paid only in shares of common stock and stock dividends on Class B stock may be paid only in shares of Class B stock and (iii) shares of Class B stock have certain conversion rights and are subject to certain restrictions on ownership and transfer. Each share of Class B stock is convertible into one share of common stock, at the option of the holder. Additional shares of Class B stock may only be issued with majority approval of the holders of the common stock and Class B stock, voting as separate classes. During fiscal 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $100 million share repurchase program, in part, to minimize the dilutive impact of the Company’s stock-based equity compensation programs over time. During the fiscal year ended September 26, 2015, the Company repurchased $15.1 million of stock. In total, as of September 26, 2015, the Company had repurchased approximately 7.9 million shares for an aggregate price of approximately $65.0 million under the share repurchase program. |
