Stock Repurchase Program [Abstract] |
STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM | STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM To facilitate our stock repurchase program, designed to return value to our stockholders and minimize dilution from stock issuances, we may repurchase our shares in the open market or enter into structured repurchase agreements with third parties. In March 2024, our Board of Directors granted authority to repurchase up to $25 billion in our common stock through March 14, 2028. In September 2025, we entered into a stock repurchase arrangement with a large financial institution to execute up to $2.5 billion in open market repurchases, which remained partially outstanding as of November 28, 2025. Upon completion of this arrangement, $5.90 billion remains under our March 2024 stock repurchase authority. Share repurchase activities for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
(in millions) | Number of Shares Delivered |  | Amount Paid |
Fiscal 2025 |  |  |  |
Accelerated share repurchase agreements | 16.8 |  |  | $ | 6,250 |  |
Open market repurchases | 14.0 |  |  | 5,031 |  |
Total | 30.8 |  |  | $ | 11,281 |  |
Fiscal 2024 |  |  |  |
Accelerated share repurchase agreements | 16.9 |  |  | $ | 9,500 |  |
Other structured stock repurchases | 0.6 |  |  | — |  | (1)
Total | 17.5 |  |  | $ | 9,500 |  |
Fiscal 2023 |  |  |  |
Accelerated share repurchase agreements | 4.0 |  |  | $ | 1,400 |  |
Other structured stock repurchases | 7.5 |  |  | 3,000 |  |
Total | 11.5 |  |  | $ | 4,400 |  |
_________________________________________ (1) During fiscal 2024, we received the final delivery of shares under a structured stock repurchase agreement entered into in fiscal 2023. Under the terms of our accelerated share repurchase agreements, financial institutions agree to deliver a portion of shares to us at contract inception and the remaining shares at settlement. The total number of shares delivered and average purchase price paid per share are determined upon settlement based on the Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) over the term of the contract, less an agreed upon discount. Under the terms of our other structured stock repurchase agreements, financial institutions agree to deliver shares to us at monthly intervals during the respective contract terms, and the number of shares delivered each month are determined based on the total notional amount of the contracts, the number of trading days in the intervals and the VWAP during the intervals, less an agreed upon discount. Prepayments for stock repurchases are classified as treasury stock, a component of stockholders’ equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, at the payment date, though only shares physically delivered to us by the end of the respective period are excluded from the computation of net income per share.
