The tax effects on net income of amounts reclassified from AOCI for the three and nine months ended July 27, 2025 and July 28, 2024 were not material. Stock Repurchase Program In March 2025, our Board of Directors approved a common stock repurchase program authorizing $10.0 billion in repurchases, which supplemented the previously existing $10.0 billion authorization from March 2023. As of July 27, 2025, approximately $14.8 billion remained available for future stock repurchases under the repurchase program. The following table summarizes our stock repurchases, including and excluding excise tax, for the three and nine months ended July 27, 2025 and July 28, 2024:
| Three Months Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
| July 27, 2025 |  | July 28, 2024 |  | July 27, 2025 |  | July 28, 2024
| (in millions, except per share amount)
Shares of common stock repurchased | 6 |  |  | 4 |  |  | 25 |  |  | 13 |
Cost of stock repurchased (including excise tax)* | $ | 1,038 |  |  | $ | 868 |  |  | $ | 4,037 |  |  | $ | 2,398 |
Average price paid per share (including excise tax)* | $ | 164.47 |  |  | $ | 222.82 |  |  | $ | 160.95 |  |  | $ | 189.90 |
Cost of stock repurchased (excluding excise tax) | $ | 1,028 |  |  | $ | 861 |  |  | $ | 4,003 |  |  | $ | 2,381 |
Average price paid per share (excluding excise tax) | $ | 162.97 |  |  | $ | 221.27 |  |  | $ | 159.60 |  |  | $ | 188.60 |
(*) Stock repurchase amounts include the 1% surcharge on stock repurchases under the Inflation Reduction Act’s excise tax. This excise tax is recorded in equity and reduces the amount available under the repurchase program, as applicable. We record treasury stock purchases under the cost method using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Upon reissuance of treasury stock, amounts in excess of the acquisition cost are credited to additional paid in capital. If we reissue treasury stock at an amount below our acquisition cost and additional paid in capital associated with prior treasury stock transactions is insufficient to cover the difference between the acquisition cost and the reissue price, this difference is recorded against retained earnings. Dividends In June 2025, March 2025 and December 2024, our Board of Directors declared quarterly cash dividends in the amount of $0.46, $0.46 and $0.40 per share, respectively. The dividend declared in June 2025 is payable in September 2025. Dividends paid during the nine months ended July 27, 2025 and July 28, 2024 totaled $1.0 billion and $863 million, respectively. We currently anticipate that cash dividends will continue to be paid on a quarterly basis, although the declaration of any future cash dividend is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, business conditions and other factors, as well as a determination by the Board of Directors that cash dividends are in the best interests of our stockholders. Share-Based Compensation We have a stockholder-approved equity plan, the Employee Stock Incentive Plan (ESIP), which permits grants to employees of share-based awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share units and performance units. In addition, the plan provides for the automatic grant of restricted stock units to non-employee directors and permits the grant of share-based awards to non-employee directors and consultants. Share-based awards made under the plan may be subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances, including in the event of a change in control. In addition, we have an Omnibus Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), which enables eligible employees to purchase our common stock. During the three and nine months ended July 27, 2025 and July 28, 2024, we recognized share-based compensation expense related to equity awards and ESPP shares. The effect of share-based compensation on the results of operations was as follows:
| Three Months Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
| July 27, 2025 |  | July 28, 2024 |  | July 27, 2025 |  | July 28, 2024
| (In millions)
Cost of products sold | $ | 40 |  |  | $ | 33 |  |  | $ | 118 |  |  | $ | 98 |
Research, development and engineering | 65 |  |  | 53 |  |  | 196 |  |  | 163 |
Marketing and selling | 21 |  |  | 17 |  |  | 63 |  |  | 53 |
General and administrative | 32 |  |  | 29 |  |  | 135 |  |  | 122 |
Total share-based compensation | $ | 158 |  |  | $ | 132 |  |  | $ | 512 |  |  | $ | 436 |
The cost associated with share-based awards is typically recognized over the awards’ service period for the entire award on a straight-line basis, adjusting for estimated forfeitures. However, in the case of share-based awards granted to certain members of senior management that allow for partial accelerated vesting in the event of a qualifying retirement based on age and years of service, the compensation expense is recognized once the individual meets the conditions for a qualifying retirement. We calculate estimated forfeiture rate on an annual basis, based on historical forfeiture activities. The cost associated with performance-based equity awards, which include performance and/or market goals, is recognized for each tranche over the service period. The cost of the portion of performance-based equity awards subject to performance goals is recognized based on an assessment of the likelihood that the applicable performance goals will be achieved, and the cost of the portion of performance-based equity awards subject to market goals is recognized based on the assumption of 100% achievement of the goal. As of July 27, 2025, we had $1.1 billion in total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to grants of share-based awards under the ESIP and shares issued under the ESPP, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.6 years. As of July 27, 2025, there were 17 million shares available for grant of share-based awards under the ESIP, and an additional 9 million shares available for issuance under the ESPP. Restricted Stock Units, Restricted Stock, Performance Share Units and Performance Units A summary of the changes in restricted stock units, restricted stock, performance share units and performance units outstanding under our equity compensation plans during the nine months ended July 27, 2025 is presented below:
| Shares |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value |  |  |  |
| (In millions, except per share amounts) |  |
Outstanding as of October 27, 2024 | 10 |  |  | $ | 129.31 |  |  |  |  |
Granted | 4 |  |  | $ | 166.59 |  |  |  |  |
Vested | (4) |  |  | $ | 127.02 |  |  |  |  |
Canceled | — |  |  | $ | 137.99 |  |  |  |  |
Outstanding as of July 27, 2025 | 10 |  |  | $ | 145.58 |  |  |  |  |
As of July 27, 2025, 0.8 million additional performance-based awards could be earned based upon achievement of certain levels of specified performance and/or market goals. A summary of the weighted-average grant date fair value per share of the granted restricted stock units, restricted stock, performance share units and performance units and total fair value vested awards for indicated periods is presented below:
| Nine Months Ended
| July 27, 2025 |  | July 28, 2024
| (In millions, except per share amounts)
Weighted average grant date fair value per share of awards granted | $ | 166.59 |  |  | $ | 148.07 |
Total fair value of vested awards | $ | 522 |  |  | $ | 468 |
During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, certain members of senior management were granted both awards subject solely to time-based vesting requirements and awards that are subject to the achievement of certain levels of specific performance and market goals, in addition to time-based vesting requirements (Performance-Based Awards). These Performance-Based Awards are subject to the achievement of targeted levels of non-GAAP economic profit and targeted levels of total shareholder return (TSR) relative to the TSR of the companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. Each of these two metrics will be weighted 50% and will be measured over a three-year period. The number of Performance-Based Awards that may vest in full after three years ranges from 0% to 200% of the target amount. The awards become eligible to vest only if the goals are achieved and will vest only if the grantee remains employed by us through each applicable vesting date, subject to a qualifying retirement based on age and years of service. The awards provide for a partial vesting based on actual performance at the conclusion of the three-year performance period in the event of a qualifying retirement. Omnibus Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan Under the ESPP, substantially all employees may purchase our common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85 percent of the lower of the fair market value of our common stock at the beginning or end of each 6-month purchase period, subject to certain limits. Our purchasing cycles begin in March and September of each of fiscal year. We issued a total of 1 million shares in each of the nine months ended July 27, 2025 and July 28, 2024. Compensation expense is calculated using the fair value of the employees’ purchase rights under the Black-Scholes model. Underlying assumptions used in the model are outlined in the following table:
| Nine Months Ended
| July 27, 2025 |  | July 28, 2024
Dividend yield | 1.21% |  | 0.76%
Expected volatility | 42.3% |  | 35.6%
Risk-free interest rate | 4.27% |  | 5.27%
Expected life (in years) | 0.5 |  | 0.5
Weighted average estimated fair value | $41.47 |  | $53.98
