- Board approved a tax benefits preservation plan effective Sept 28, 2023, with a 4.99% ownership trigger.
- Company had $424.9 million in federal NOLs as of Sept 30, 2022, which could be limited by an ownership change.
- Plan distributes one preferred share purchase right per common share; record date Oct 12, 2023.
