On February 13, 2019, the Company declared dividends payable to holders of Class A Non-Voting Shares and Common Shares at a rate of $1.0375 per share payable on June 1, 2019 to shareholders of record as of April 30, 2019. The dividend is considered an "eligible dividend" for tax purposes.
SHARE REPURCHASE
On November 8, 2018, the Company announced its intention to purchase $300-400 million of its Class A Non-Voting Shares (the "2019 Share Purchase Intention"), in excess of the amount required for anti-dilutive purposes, by the end of 2019. To date, the Company has purchased $231.2 million of Class A Non-Voting Shares in partial fulfilment of its 2019 Share Purchase Intention, leaving $68.8-$168.8 million that is expected to be purchased during the remainder of fiscal 2019.
NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID
The Company announced its intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the "2019 NCIB") to purchase from March 2, 2019 to March 1, 2020 up to 5.5 million Class A Non-Voting Shares, which represents 9.8% of the 55.9 million approximate public float of Class A Non-Voting Shares issued and outstanding as at February 13, 2019. There were 58,771,660 Class A Non-Voting Shares issued and outstanding as at February 13, 2019.
The Company intends to purchase Class A Non-Voting Shares under the 2019 NCIB for two purposes: (i) to fulfill the 2019 Share Purchase Intention as part of its capital management plan; and (ii) to offset the dilutive effect of the issuance of Class A Non-Voting Shares pursuant to its dividend reinvestment and stock option plans, consistent with the Company's policy.
Purchases of Class A Non-Voting Shares pursuant to the 2019 NCIB will be made by means of open market transactions through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems, if eligible, at the market price of the Class A Non-Voting Shares at the time of purchase or as otherwise permitted under the rules of the TSX and applicable securities laws. Purchases may also be made by way of private agreements or share repurchase programs under issuer bid exemption orders issued by securities regulatory authorities. Any private purchase made under an exemption order issued by a securities regulatory authority will generally be at a discount to the prevailing market price.
For open market transactions, the Company will be subject to a daily purchase limit of 59,470 Class A Non-Voting Shares, which represents 25% of 237,880, the average daily trading volume of the Class A Non-Voting Shares on the TSX, net of purchases made by the Company through the TSX, for the six months ended January 31, 2019. The Class A Non-Voting Shares purchased by the Company pursuant to the 2019 NCIB will be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares.
The Company also announced that it will enter into an automatic share purchase plan (the "ASPP") with its designated broker to facilitate purchases of Class A Non-Voting Shares under the 2019 NCIB at times when the Company would not ordinarily be permitted to make such purchases due to its internal trading black-out periods or applicable regulatory restrictions. Purchases made pursuant to the ASPP will be made by the Company's designated broker based upon the parameters prescribed by the TSX, applicable Canadian securities laws and the terms of the written agreement between the Company and its designated broker. The ASPP will commence on March 2, 2019 and terminate on the earliest of the date on which: (i) the purchase limit under the 2019 NCIB has been reached; (ii) the 2019 NCIB expires; and (iii) the Company terminates the ASPP in accordance with its terms. The ASPP constitutes an "automatic securities purchase plan" under applicable Canadian securities laws.
The Company's proposed 2019 NCIB and ASPP are subject to regulatory approval.
Under the Company's normal course issuer bid which began on March 2, 2018 and expires on March 2, 2019 (the "2018 NCIB"), the Company received approval to purchase up to 5.9 million Class A Non-Voting Shares. To date, the Company has purchased a total of 3,878,411 Class A Non-Voting Shares by means of open market transactions through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems under the Company's 2018 NCIB, at the volume weighted average price of $157.40.
