Stock Repurchase Programs
The Company’s Board of Directors authorized an ongoing stock repurchase program with a total repurchase authority granted to the Company of $3.4 billion. The Company may use the approved dollar authority to repurchase stock at any time until the approved amount is exhausted. The objective of the Company’s stock repurchase program is to improve stockholders’ returns. At June 30, 2013, approximately $234.6 million was available to repurchase common stock pursuant to the stock repurchase program. All shares repurchased are recorded as treasury stock. A portion of the funds used to repurchase stock over the course of the program was provided by proceeds from employee stock option exercises and the related tax benefit.
