PART II
Item 5. Market for Our Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Our Common Stock
Market Information. Our shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "LQI." The following table sets forth, for the periods shown, the high and low sales prices for our paired shares (our publicly traded paired common stock prior to our restructuring) as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape:
| 2001 | | 2000 |
Quarter | High | Low | Quarter | High | Low |
First.......................... | $4.08 | $2.44 | First.......................... | $6.88 | $1.88 |
Second....................... | $6.05 | $3.80 | Second....................... | $3.75 | $1.88 |
Third......................... | $6.02 | $3.95 | Third......................... | $3.56 | $2.06 |
Fourth........................ | $6.42 | $4.21 | Fourth........................ | $3.69 | $2.31 |
LQ Properties' class A common stock is currently held by LQ Corporation and has never been publicly traded.
Holders of Record. There were approximately 10,965 holders of record of our shares as of February 25, 2002. Included in the number of stockholders of record are shares held in "nominee" or "street" name. As of August 9, 2002, LQ Corporation was the only holder of LQ Properties' class A common stock.
Dividends. In order to qualify for the beneficial tax treatment accorded to REITs, LQ Properties is generally required each year to distribute to its preferred and common stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding any net capital gain. LQ Properties did not make any distributions on its common stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 as preferred dividends exceeded REIT taxable income. In connection with the restructuring, LQ Properties' stockholders approved the terms of LQ Properties' class B common stock which provide that no dividends will be paid on LQ Properties' class B common stock prior to 2005. Until 2005, dividends may be paid on LQ Properties' class A common stock, including dividends necessary to maintain LQ Properties' status as a REIT. Commencing in 2005, the holders of class B common stock, may receive, on a quarterly basis, a dividend of $0.10 per share per annum although this dividend payment is not mandatory. Prior to 2005, we expect that if LQ Properties pays dividends on its common stock, including dividends required to maintain its REIT status, these dividends will be paid to LQ Corporation, the sole holder of the class A common stock following our restructuring. In addition, we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on LQ Corporation's common stock in the foreseeable future.
Our Series A Preferred Stock
Market Information. On June 10, 1998, LQ Properties issued 7,000,000 depositary shares (the "Series A Depositary Shares"). Each Series A Depositary Share represents one-tenth of a share of 9% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.10 per share ("Series A Preferred Stock"). LQ Properties' Series A Depository Shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "LQI_P." The following table sets forth, for the periods shown, the high and low sales prices for the Series A Depository Shares:
| 2001 | | 2000 |
Quarter | High | Low | Quarter | High | Low |
First.......................... | $18.45 | $14.19 | First.......................... | $14.69 | $ 9.92 |
