LOGM 2017 Annual Report
• announcements by us or our competitors of significant new services, contracts, acquisitions or strategic alliances; • regulatory developments in the United States, foreign countries or both; • litigation, including stockholder litigation and/or class action litigation, involving our company, our serv- ices or our general industry, as well as announcements regarding developments in on-going litigation matters; • additions or departures of key personnel; • general perception of the future of the remote-connectivity market or our services; • investors’ general perception of us; and • changes in general economic, industry and market conditions. In addition, if the market for technology stocks or the stock market in general experiences a loss of investor con- fidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or results of operations. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause our stock price to fall and may expose us to class action lawsuits that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to management. There can be no assurance that we will continue to pay dividends or repurchase stock. On February 23, 2017, our Board of Directors approved a three-year capital return plan. Pursuant to this plan, we intend to return up to $700 million to our stockholders through a combination of share repurchases and divi- dends. As part of this capital return plan, we intend to pay a quarterly cash dividend, subject to quarterly declara- tions by our Board of Directors. Any future declarations, amount and timing of any dividends and/or the amount and timing of any stock repurchases are subject to capital availability and determinations by our Board of Direc- tors that cash dividends and/or stock repurchases are in the best interest of our stockholders. Our ability to repurchase our shares and/or pay dividends to our stockholders is also subject to our maintaining compliance with our credit facility covenants as well as any potential tax restrictions which may be imposed on us related to the Merger. Our ability to pay dividends and/or repurchase stock will depend upon, among other factors, our cash balances and potential future capital requirements for strategic transactions, including acquisitions, debt service requirements, results of operations, financial condition and other factors beyond our control that our Board of Directors may deem relevant. A reduction in or elimination of our dividend payments, our dividend program and/ or stock repurchases could have a negative effect on our stock price. If securities or industry analysts who cover us, our business or our market publish a negative report or change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline. The trading market for our common stock is influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who cover us or may cover us in the future publish a negative report or change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. Certain stockholders could attempt to influence changes within the Company which could adversely affect our operations, financial condition and the value of our common stock. Our stockholders may from time-to-time seek to acquire a controlling stake in our company, engage in proxy solicitations, advance stockholder proposals or otherwise attempt to effect changes. Campaigns by stockholders to effect changes at publicly-traded companies are sometimes led by investors seeking to increase short-term stockholder value through actions such as financial restructuring, increased debt, special dividends, stock repurchases or sales of assets or the entire company. Responding to proxy contests and other actions by activist stockholders can be costly and time-consuming, and could disrupt our operations and divert the attention of our Board of Directors and senior management from the pursuit of our business strategies. These actions could adversely affect our operations, financial condition and the value of our common stock. 26
