Share Repurchases
In December 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the 2012 Share Repurchase Program and through subsequent amendments, the most recent in March 2017, the total repurchase authorization was increased from $500.0 million to $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock. This program has no expiration date and may be discontinued at any time. Purchases under the 2012 Share Repurchase Program are subject to a review of the circumstances in place at the time and may be made from time to time as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements.
We did not repurchase shares in the third and second quarters of fiscal 2019. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we repurchased 24.5 thousand shares of the Company's common stock for $6.1 million, at an average purchase price of $248.70 per share. We did not repurchase shares during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2018. At July 31, 2019, $557.4 million remains authorized for repurchase under the program.
Dividends
We paid a semiannual dividend of approximately $1.5 million or 3 cents per share on February 8, 2019, to stockholders of record on January 22, 2019. We paid another semiannual dividend of approximately $1.5 million or 3 cents per share on August 7, 2019, to stockholders of record on July 23, 2019.
