NOTE 13. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS
 
We account for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. As a result, $46,000 and $1.4 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense has been recorded to additional paid-in capital for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
 
While we intend to pay regular quarterly distributions, the actual declaration of such future distributions and the establishment of the per share amount, record dates, and payment dates are subject to final determination by our Board of Directors and dependent upon future earnings, cash flows, financial and legal requirements, and other factors. Any future distributions are likely to be comparable to prior declarations unless there are changes in expected future earnings, cash flows, financial and legal requirements.
