PER CURIAM:

Marcellus Lewis Dancy, III, appeals from the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion' to reduce his sentence pursuant to Amendment 782 to the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual (2014). A. district court’s decision on whether to reduce a sentence under § 3582(c)(2) is reviewed for abuse of discretion, while its conclusion on' the scope of its legal authority under that provision is reviewed de novo, United States v. Munn, 595 F.3d 183, 186 (4th Cir.2010).

Our review of the record reveals that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Dancy’s motion. The court plainly understood its authority to reduce Dancy’s sentence pursuant to Amendment 782, see United States v. Stewart, 595 F.3d 197, 203 (4th Cir.2010); USSG § 1B1.10(b)(2)(B), p.s., but declined to do so based on the facts and circumstances of Dancy’s case, with which it was abundantly familiar. See United States v. Smalls, 720 F.3d 193, 196-97 (4th Cir.2013). Moreover, despite Dancy’s claim to the contrary, it is well settled that the district court is not required to provide individualized reasoning when deciding a § 3582(c)(2) motion, see United States v. Legree, 205 F.3d 724, 728-29 (4th Cir.2000), and the record does not support Dancy’s argument that the court, failed to consider the relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) (2012) factors. See Smalls, 720 F.3d at 195-97.

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
