A.,

Other companies for which I've noted buybacks tend to sell Puts at a price they're willing to sell their shares. If the price goes up, they keep the premium. If the price goes down, they'll probably get assigned and the premium reduces the effective price paid.

I've seen no indication in MTSN's 10Qs or 10K that they've sold Puts.
Perhaps Rich Mora could use some buyback education???
