Share Repurchase and Retirement

 

As of September 30, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized an aggregate of $5.4 billion for our share repurchase program, including its most recent increase in authorization in December 2025. During the years to date ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company repurchased 16.6 million shares of common stock for $778 million, and 14.9 million shares of common stock for $682 million, respectively, under the repurchase program, excluding transaction costs and excise tax. As of September 30, 2026, approximately $378 million remained available for future share repurchases under the authorization.

 

Of the shares repurchased for the year to date ended September 30, 2026, 16.2 million shares were retired and resumed the status of authorized and unissued shares of common stock, and 0.3 million shares repurchased on the HKEX are expected to be retired subsequent to September 30, 2026, and included in Treasury stock in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), which is discussed further in Note 13, imposes an excise tax of 1% on net share repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022. Excise tax on net share repurchases, which was recognized as part of the cost of the shares repurchased, amounted to $7 million and $6 million for the years to date ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
