The amount and timing of dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has not authorized or paid a dividend since we became an independent public company on March 4, 2016 and does not currently plan on paying a dividend in 2018 as our focus continues to be funding our growth initiatives and the reduction of outstanding debt. The timing, declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, corporate strategy, capital requirements of our operating subsidiaries, contractual restrictions, including covenants contained in our senior secured credit facilities and our senior notes indenture, debt service obligations, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice, ability to access capital markets and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

As the company has not declared and paid a dividend since the spin-off from MTW, it has not established a dividend reinvestment plan.
