NOTE 6. - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (NET ASSETS)
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were 500,000 shares of $10.00 par value preferred stock authorized and unissued.
On May 7, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase plan, which authorizes the Corporation to repurchase shares of the Corporation’s outstanding common stock with an aggregate cost of up to $1,500,000 at prices per share of common stock no greater than the then current net asset value per share. This new share repurchase authorization lasts for a period of 12 months from the authorization date until May 7, 2025. This new share repurchase plan replaces the share repurchase authorization that was previously approved by the Board of Directors in April 2023. No shares of Rand's common stock were repurchased by the Corporation during the years ended December 31, 2024 or 2023.
The Corporation’s Board of Directors declared the following dividends during the year ended December 31, 2024:
