Share Activity

During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $100 million share repurchase program (the “2014 Share Repurchase Program”), which provided the Company the ability to repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time in open market transactions or in privately-negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws. Repurchased shares are held in the Company’s treasury. As of December 31, 2014, no shares of the Company’s common stock had been repurchased under this program. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company repurchased 5.2 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $100 million, which completed the 2014 Share Repurchase Program.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Accumulated other comprehensive losses totaled $52.7 million and $34.0 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. For the three month period ended June 30, 2015, unrealized foreign currency translation gains totaled $3.3 million, and for the six month period ended June 30, 2015, unrealized foreign currency translation losses totaled $18.7 million. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, unrealized foreign currency translation gains totaled $7.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Unrealized foreign currency gains and losses relate primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency activity, which has grown in recent years due to acquisitions, is related primarily to the Company’s Canadian operations.
