ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol DLX. Dividends are declared by our board of directors on a quarterly basis, and therefore, are subject to change. As of December 31, 2024, the number of shareholders of record was 4,695, excluding shareholders whose shares were held in the name of various dealers, clearing agencies, banks, brokers, and other fiduciaries.

In October 2018, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our common stock. This authorization does not have an expiration date. No shares were repurchased under this authorization during the fourth quarter of 2024 and $287 million remained available for repurchase as of December 31, 2024.
