(4)The grant date fair value of PSUs is determined based on the Monte Carlo simulation model for the market-based total shareholder return component and the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date for performance-based components. The Monte Carlo simulation model incorporates the probability of achieving the total shareholder return market condition. Compensation expense is recognized using the grant date fair values regardless of whether the market condition is achieved, so long as the requisite service has been provided.

Effective January 1, 2023, our Board of Directors approved a program authorizing the repurchase of $6.0 billion of our Common Stock through December 31, 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we repurchased approximately $1.6 billion of Common Stock pursuant to this authorization. Repurchases under the program are determined by management and are wholly discretionary.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased approximately 15 million shares of Common Stock at an average cost of $70.52 per share, or an aggregate cost of approximately $1.0 billion, all of which was paid during the period except for approximately $5 million settled in July 2024. All share repurchases were funded through available cash and commercial paper issuances. As of June 30, 2024, we have approximately $3.4 billion in remaining share repurchase capacity.
