Note 14: Share Repurchase Program

On April 22, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $300,000 of our outstanding common shares for a period of up to five years. Under the program, we are authorized to repurchase shares for cash on the open market, from time to time, in privately negotiated transactions or block transactions, or through an accelerated repurchase agreement. The timing of such repurchases is dependent on price, market conditions and applicable regulatory requirements. Upon repurchasing shares, we reduce our common stock for the par value of the shares with the excess being applied against additional paid-in capital. 

During the third quarter of 2024, we repurchased shares under this program with an aggregate value of $17,549. Of this amount, $225 reduced common stock and $17,324 reduced additional paid-in capital. During the nine months ended August 31, 2024, we repurchased shares under this program with an aggregate value of $31,811. Of this amount $407 reduced common stock and $31,404 reduced additional paid-in capital. There were no shares repurchased under this program during the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
