Stock Repurchase Program
On January 26, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $2.0 billion of its common stock from time to time prior to January 26, 2023, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. This authorized stock repurchase plan replaced in its entirety the January 30, 2019, stock repurchase program. The timing and amount of any shares of the Company’s common stock that are repurchased under the repurchase program are determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors.

During the three months ended July 2, 2021, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. During the nine months ended July 2, 2021, the Company paid $195.6 million (including commissions) in connection with the repurchase of 1.4 million shares of its common stock (paying an average price of $138.85 per share), all of which shares were repurchased pursuant to the January 30, 2019, stock repurchase program. As of July 2, 2021, $2.0 billion remained available under the January 26, 2021, stock repurchase program. In connection with the Asset Purchase and the debt incurred to finance the Asset Purchase (as discussed in Notes 13 and 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company has temporarily suspended repurchase activities under the January 26, 2021, stock repurchase program.

During the three and nine months ended July 2, 2021, the Board of Directors approved the retirement of 68.5 million shares of treasury stock at an aggregated historical cost of $4,342.6 million.
During the three months ended June 26, 2020, the Company paid $58.5 million (including commissions) in connection with the repurchase of 0.7 million shares of its common stock (paying an average price of $87.42 per share). During the nine months ended June 26, 2020, the Company paid $416.5 million (including commissions) in connection with the repurchase of 4.6 million shares of its common stock (paying an average price of $89.56 per share).
