Libeccio Inc. pays all the free cashflow (to equityholders) via share buyback for the next two years. In year 3 the company will pay half of the free cashflow via dividend payment and, after that pay out the residual via buy back. The free cashflow of the last year (just paid out) was 12,000,000 USD and there are 4,000,000 shares outstanding today.
