Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. Annual Report

The holders of our debt obligations and preferred stock, if any, will have priority over our common stock with respect to payment in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up and with respect to the payment of interest and dividends. In any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, our common stock would rank below all claims of debt holders against us and claims of all of our outstanding shares of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2019, we had $13.0 million of senior indebtedness and $25.0 million of subordinated debentures outstanding. We do not currently have any shares of preferred stock outstanding. As a result, holders of our common stock will not be entitled to receive any payment or other distribution of assets upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company until after all of our obligations to our debt holders have been satisfied and holders of senior equity securities, including preferred shares, if any, have received any payment or distribution due to them. We cannot guarantee that our stock repurchase program will be fully implemented or that it will enhance long-term shareholder value. In January 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved a stock repurchase program, which authorized the Company to repurchase up to $15.0 million of its common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions. The repurchase program was effective immediately and will continue for a period of 24 months. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any shares of its common stock, and other than repurchases that have been completed to date, there is no assurance that the Company will do so or that the Company will repurchase shares at favorable prices. The repurchase program may be suspended or terminated at any time and, even if fully implemented, the program may not enhance long-term shareholder value. On July 23, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved a $10.0 million increase to the stock repurchase program, increasing the authorization to repurchase common stock under the program from a total of $15.0 million to a total of $25.0 million. The stock repurchase program continues through January 22, 2021. ITEM 1.B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. ITEM 2.
