13. HUNTSMAN CORPORATION STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Share Repurchase Program On February 7, 2018 and on May 3, 2018, our Board of Directors collectively authorized us to repurchase up to an aggregate of $1 billion in shares of our common stock. The share repurchase program is supported by our free cash flow generation. Repurchases may be made through the open market, including through accelerated share repurchase programs, or in privately negotiated transactions, and repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time without prior notice. Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are held in treasury at cost. During the first quarter of 2020, we repurchased 5,364,519 shares of our common stock for approximately $96 million, excluding commissions, under the repurchase program. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2020, we suspended share repurchases under our existing share repurchase program in order to enhance our liquidity position in response to COVID-19. Dividends on Common Stock During the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, we paid $36 million and $37 million, respectively, or $0.1625 per share each, to common stockholders. |
