Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) | 12 Months Ended
--- | ---
Mar. 31, 2025
Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] |
Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) | Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) Each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock is permitted one vote on proposals presented to stockholders and is entitled to participate equally in any dividends declared by the Board. In July 2024, the Company’s quarterly dividend was raised from $0.62 to $0.71 per share of common stock for dividends declared on or after such date by the Board. The Company declared regular cash dividends of $2.75, $2.40, and $2.09 per share for the years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The Company anticipates that it will continue to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future. However, the payment and amount of future dividends remain within the discretion of the Board and will depend upon the Company’s future earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, legal requirements, and other factors. Share Repurchase Plans The Board has authorized the repurchase of common stock. The Company may repurchase common stock from time-to-time through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, or by combinations of such methods, any of which may use pre-arranged trading plans that are designed to meet the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). The timing of any repurchases and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including our stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, tax implications, restrictions under our debt obligations, other uses for capital, impacts on the value of remaining shares, cash generated from operations, and market and economic conditions. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company’s repurchase of common stock, adjusted for allowable items, are subject to a 1% excise tax as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Excise taxes incurred on share repurchases of an entity’s own common stock are direct and incremental costs to purchase treasury stock, and accordingly are included in the total cost basis of the common stock acquired and reflected as a reduction of stockholders’ equity within “Treasury shares” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Deficit. Excise taxes do not reduce the Company’s remaining authorization for the repurchase of common stock. Excise taxes of $26 million and $25 million were accrued for shares repurchased during the year ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. On October 30, 2024, the company made a payment of $25 million for fiscal 2024 excise taxes previously accrued. As of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the amount accrued for excise taxes was $26 million and $25 million, respectively, within “Other accrued liabilities” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Information regarding share repurchase activity over the last three fiscal years were as follows:
