Options to purchase approximately 1 million and less than 1 million shares of our common stock for the three months and 1 million and 2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.
In January 2021, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program under which it authorized the Company to repurchase up to 100 million shares of our common stock at management's discretion from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The new repurchase program has no expiration date and may be suspended for periods, amended or discontinued at any time. Under the new share repurchase program, approximately 85 million shares remain available for repurchase as of September 30, 2021.
