Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Shareholders' Equity

Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Shareholders' Equity

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per basic share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Earnings (loss) per diluted share include the weighted-average effect of dilutive restricted stock units, performance share units and options (collectively, “Dilutive Awards”) on the weighted-average shares outstanding.

The following table provides the weighted-average shares utilized for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the second quarter and year-to-date 2024 and 2023:

	Second Quarter		Year-to-Date
	2024	2023	2024	2023
	(in millions)
Common Shares	78	77	78	78
Treasury Shares	—	—	—	—
Basic Shares	78	77	78	78
Effect of Dilutive Awards (a)(b)	2	—	1	—
Diluted Shares	80	77	79	78
Anti-dilutive Awards (a)	1	5	2	5

 _______________

(a)Shares underlying certain restricted stock units, performance share units and options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

(b)For the second quarter and year-to-date 2023, shares underlying outstanding restricted stock units, performance share units and options were excluded from dilutive shares as a result of the Company's net loss for those periods.

Shareholders' Equity

Common Stock Share Repurchases & Treasury Stock Retirements

March 2024 Share Repurchase Program

In March 2024, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (“March 2024 Share Repurchase Program”), authorizing the repurchase of up to $250 million of the Company's common stock, subject to market conditions and other factors, through open market, accelerated share repurchase or privately negotiated transactions, including pursuant to one or more Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The March 2024 Share Repurchase Program is open-ended in term and will continue until exhausted.

The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock under the March 2024 Share Repurchase Program during the second quarter or year-to-date 2024. As of August 3, 2024, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $250 million of the Company's common stock under the March 2024 Share Repurchase Program.

January 2023 Share Repurchase Program

In January 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (“January 2023 Share Repurchase Program”), authorizing the repurchase of up to $250 million of the Company's common stock. The authorization, which expired at the end of fiscal year 2023, was utilized in fiscal year 2023 to repurchase shares in the open market and under the accelerated share repurchase agreement described below.

In February 2023, as part of the January 2023 Share Repurchase Program, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) to repurchase $125 million of the Company's common stock. In February 2023, the Company made an initial payment of $125 million to Goldman Sachs and received an initial delivery of 2.4 million shares of the Company's common stock. As a result of the initial share delivery, there was an additional $1 million increase in Treasury Stock, which reflected the excise tax liability recorded related to the share repurchase in accordance with the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

In May 2023, upon final settlement of the ASR Agreement, the Company received an additional 1.3 million shares of the Company's common stock from Goldman Sachs. The final number of shares received was based on the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the term of the ASR Agreement, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms of the ASR Agreement. In connection with the final settlement of the ASR Agreement, the $25 million previously recorded in Paid-in Capital as of April 29, 2023 was reclassified to Treasury Stock in the second quarter of 2023.

The Company repurchased the following shares of its common stock under the January 2023 Share Repurchase Program during year-to-date 2023:

	Amount Authorized		Shares Repurchased	Amount Repurchased		Average Stock Price
	(in millions)		(in thousands)	(in millions)
January 2023 Share Repurchase Program	$	250	3,652	$	125	$	34.22

Shares repurchased under the January 2023 Share Repurchase Program were retired upon repurchase. As a result, the Company retired the 3.7 million shares repurchased in connection with the settlement of the ASR Agreement year-to-date 2023. The retirement resulted in a reduction of $126 million in Treasury Stock, less than $1 million in the par value of Common Stock, $9 million in Paid-in Capital and $117 million in Retained Earnings year-to-date 2023.
