Share Repurchase Program

​

On October 26, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of $1 billion. On March 25, 2022, our Board of Directors increased the authorization of our share repurchase program from $1 billion to $2 billion. The share repurchase program is supported by our free cash flow generation. Repurchases may be made in the open market, including through accelerated share repurchase programs, or in privately negotiated transactions, and repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time without prior notice. Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are held in treasury at cost. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under this program. As of  September 30, 2024, we have approximately $547 million remaining under the authorization of our existing share repurchase program.
