Common Stock Repurchase Programs

17. Common Stock Repurchase Programs:

 

In July 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock up to an amount sufficient to offset the dilutive impact from the issuance of shares under the Company’s equity compensation programs. The share repurchase program allows the Company to make open market purchases from time-to-time based on general economic and market conditions and trading restrictions. The repurchase program also allows for the repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock to offset the dilutive impact from the issuance of shares, if any, related to the Company’s acquisition program. No shares were purchased under this program during the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

In August 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to $500.0 million of the Company’s common stock in addition to its existing share repurchase program, of which $4.6 million remained available for repurchase as of December 31, 2023. Under this share repurchase program, during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company purchased 61,000 shares of its common stock for $0.9 million, representing shares withheld to satisfy minimum statutory withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company purchased 4.5 million shares of its common stock for $88.5 million, of which 0.2 million shares and $2.9 million, respectively, were for shares withheld to satisfy minimum statutory withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock.

 

The Company intends to utilize various methods to effect any future share repurchases, including, among others, open market purchases and accelerated share repurchase programs. The amount and timing of repurchases will depend upon several factors, including general economic and market conditions and trading restrictions.
