During the six months ended June 30, 2019, Teradyne repurchased 6.5 million shares of common stock for $247.2 million at an average price of $38.20 per share. The total price includes commissions and is recorded as a reduction to retained earnings. Dividend Holders of Teradyne’s common stock are entitled to receive dividends when they are declared by Teradyne’s Board of Directors. In January 2020 and May 2020, Teradyne’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share.
