Share Repurchase Program:
Between 2013 and 2020, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of a total of $23.7 billion of our Common Stock and extended the program through December 31, 2023. Repurchases under the program are determined by management and are wholly discretionary. Prior to January 1, 2022, we had repurchased approximately $20.0 billion of Common Stock pursuant to this authorization. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, we repurchased approximately 31.6 million shares of Common Stock at an average cost of $63.41 per share, or an aggregate cost of approximately $2.0 billion, all of which was paid during the period. All share repurchases were funded through available cash and commercial paper issuances. Our Board of Directors approved a new program authorizing the repurchase of up to $6.0 billion of our Common Stock through December 31, 2025. This authorization, effective January 1, 2023, replaces our current share repurchase program.
