Earnings Per Share and Shareholders' Equity Earnings Per Share and Shareholders' Equity
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per basic share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Earnings per diluted share include the weighted-average effect of dilutive restricted stock and options on the weighted-average shares outstanding.
On August 2, 2021, the Separation was achieved through the Former Parent's distribution of 100% of the shares of the Company's common stock to holders of the Former Parent's common stock as of the close of business on the record date of July 22, 2021. The Former Parent's stockholders of record received one share of the Company's common stock for every three shares of the Former Parent's common stock. As a result, on August 3, 2021, the Company had 88 million shares of common stock outstanding. This share amount is being utilized for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented prior to the Separation. After the Separation, actual outstanding shares are used to calculate both basic and diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
The following table provides the weighted-average shares utilized for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2022 and 2021:

Shareholders' Equity
Common Stock Share Repurchases
In February 2022, upon final settlement of the Company's December 2021 accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), the Company received an additional 0.3 million shares of the Company's common stock from Goldman Sachs. The delivery of shares resulted in an immediate reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income per share. In connection with the settlement of the ASR Agreement, $50 million previously recorded in Paid-in Capital as of January 29, 2022, was reclassified to Treasury Stock.
In March 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program (“March 2022 Share Repurchase Program”), providing for the repurchase of up to $250 million of the Company's common stock. The $250 million authorization is expected to be utilized to repurchase shares in the open market, subject to market conditions and other factors. Shares acquired through the March 2022 Share Repurchase Program will be available to meet obligations under equity compensation plans and for general corporate purposes. The March 2022 Share Repurchase Program will continue until exhausted, but no later than January 28, 2023.
The Company repurchased the following shares of its common stock during the first quarter of 2022 under its March 2022 Share Repurchase Program:
Repurchase ProgramAmount AuthorizedShares RepurchasedAmount RepurchasedAverage Stock Price

The March 2022 Share Repurchase Program has $141 million remaining as of April 30, 2022.
Subsequent to April 30, 2022, the Company repurchased an additional 0.5 million shares for $23 million through June 2, 2022 under the March 2022 Share Repurchase Program.
Treasury Stock Retirements
In February 2022, the Company immediately retired the additional 0.3 million shares repurchased in connection with the settlement of the ASR Agreement. The retirement resulted in a reduction of $50 million in Treasury Stock, less than $1 million in the par value of Common Stock, less than $1 million in Paid-in Capital and nearly $50 million in Retained Earnings.
In accordance with the Board of Directors' resolution, shares of common stock repurchased under the March 2022 Share Repurchase Program will be retired and cancelled upon repurchase. As a result, the Company retired the 2.2 million shares repurchased under the March 2022 Share Repurchase Program, which resulted in reductions of less than $1 million in the par value of Common Stock, $4 million in Paid-in Capital and $105 million in Retained Earnings.
