Stock Repurchase Program
On June 2, 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), which was most recently increased by $500.0 million to an aggregate authorization of $2.2 billion on October 21, 2025. No time limit has been established for the completion of the Repurchase Program, and the Repurchase Program may be suspended, discontinued or replaced by the Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. As of March 31, 2026, we had $364.9 million available under the Repurchase Program to repurchase additional shares of our common stock.
The following table details our stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program:

As we repurchase our common shares, we reduce stated capital on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the $0.01 of par value of the shares repurchased, with the excess purchase price over par value recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. If additional paid-in capital is reduced to zero, we record the remainder of the excess purchase price over par value as a reduction of retained earnings.
