Stock repurchases
In 2011, our Board of Directors approved a continuation of the current stock repurchase program of $150 million, with no time limitation.  There were no shares repurchased under this program during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017. We had approximately $17.8 million of repurchase authority remaining under this program at September 30, 2018.

Of this amount, we purchased 5,830 shares for $0.7 million, or $117.39 per share, for stock-based awards in conjunction with our equity compensation plan, for which the shares were delivered to plan participants in January and May 2018. We purchased 6,938 shares for $0.8 million, or $119.52 per share, to fund the rabbi trust for the outside director deferred stock compensation plan.
