Capital On August 17, 2021, the Company announced the closing of its underwritten public offering of 2,400,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/100 th interest in a share of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. On August 20, 2021, the underwriters of the offering exercised in full their option to purchase 360,000 additional depositary shares to cover over-allotments. As a result, the gross proceeds from the offering totaled $69.0 million. On January 27, 2022, the Company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $36.72 per share ($0.3672 per depositary share) on the Series A Preferred Stock, payable on March 1, 2022, to shareholders of record on the Series A Preferred Stock at the close of business on February 15, 2022. Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2021, was $379.3 million, an increase of $113.9 million, or 42.9%, over shareholders’ equity of $265.4 million at December 31, 2020, primarily due to $44.5 million of net income retained, the net issuance of $66.5 million of preferred stock, and a $2.4 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive income primarily resulted from interest rate fluctuations between periods that impacted the fair values of the investment securities and derivatives portfolios.
