Shareholders' Equity
Note 19.
Shareholders’ Equity
Common Equity
As of both March 2020 and December 2019, the firm had 4.00 billion authorized shares of common stock and 200 million authorized shares of nonvoting common stock, each with a par value of $0.01 per share.
The firm’s share repurchase program is intended to help maintain the appropriate level of common equity. The share repurchase program is effected primarily through regular open-market purchases (which may include repurchase plans designed to comply with Rule
 10b5-1
and accelerated share repurchases), the amounts and timing of which are determined primarily by the firm’s current and projected capital position, and capital deployment opportunities, but which may also be influenced by general market conditions and the prevailing price and trading volumes of the firm’s common stock. Prior to repurchasing common stock, the firm must receive confirmation that the FRB does not object to such capital action.
The table below presents information about common stock repurchases.

Pursuant to the terms of certain share-based compensation plans, employees may remit shares to the firm or the firm may cancel share-based awards to satisfy statutory employee tax withholding requirements. Under these plans, during the three months ended March 2020, 3,476 shares were remitted with a total value of $0.9 million and the firm cancelled 3.3 million share-based awards with a total value of $803 million.

In the tables above:
 
All shares have a par value of $0.01 per share and, where applicable, each share is represented by the specified number of depositary shares.
 
The earliest redemption date represents the date on which each share of
non-cumulative
Preferred Stock is redeemable at the firm’s option.
 
Prior to redeeming preferred stock, the firm must receive confirmation that the FRB does not object to such action.
 
In January 2020, the firm issued 14,000 shares of Series S 4.40% Fixed-Rate Reset
Non-Cumulative
Preferred Stock (Series S Preferred Stock).
 
The redemption price per share for Series A through F and Series Q through S Preferred Stock is the liquidation preference plus declared and unpaid dividends. The redemption price per share for Series J through P Preferred Stock is the liquidation preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Each share of Series E and Series F Preferred Stock is redeemable at the firm’s option, subject to certain covenant restrictions governing the firm’s ability to redeem the preferred stock without issuing common stock or other instruments with equity-like characteristics. See Note 14 for information about the replacement capital covenants applicable to the Series E and Series F Preferred Stock.
 
All series of preferred stock are pari passu and have a preference over the firm’s common stock on liquidation.
 
The firm’s ability to declare or pay dividends on, or purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, its common stock is subject to certain restrictions in the event that the firm fails to pay or set aside full dividends on the preferred stock for the latest completed dividend period.
In the first quarter of 2020, the firm redeemed the remaining 14,000 outstanding shares of its Series L 5.70%
Non-Cumulative
Preferred Stock (Series L Preferred Stock) with a redemption value of $350 million ($25,000 per share), plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The difference between the redemption value and net carrying value at the time of this redemption was $1 million, which was recorded as an addition to preferred stock dividends in 2020.
In 2019, the firm redeemed 38,000 shares of its outstanding Series L Preferred Stock with a redemption value of $950 million ($25,000 per share), plus accrued and unpaid dividends. In addition, in 2019, the firm redeemed the remaining 6,000 outstanding shares of its Series B 6.20%
Non-Cumulative
Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock) with a redemption value of $150 million ($25,000 per share). The difference between the redemption value and net carrying value at the time of these redemptions was $9 million, which was recorded as an addition to preferred stock dividends in 2019.
