In April 2016, our Board declared a cash dividend to stockholders of $0.29 per share payable on July 29, 2016 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 30, 2016. The Merger discussed in Note 1 does not impact our ability and intent to continue quarterly dividend payments prior to the closing of the Merger consistent with our historical dividend payments. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, we have agreed with Aetna that our quarterly dividend will not exceed $0.29 per share prior to the closing of the Merger. Declaration and payment of future quarterly dividends is at the discretion of our Board and may be adjusted as business needs or market conditions change. In addition, under the terms of the Merger Agreement, we have agreed with Aetna to coordinate the declaration and payment of dividends so that our stockholders do not fail to receive a quarterly dividend around the time of the closing of the Merger. Stock Repurchases In September 2014, our Board of Directors replaced a previous share repurchase authorization of up to $1 billion (of which $816 million remained unused) with a new authorization for repurchases of up to $2 billion of our common shares exclusive of shares repurchased in connection with employee stock plans, expiring on December 31, 2016. Under the share repurchase authorization, shares may be purchased from time to time at prevailing prices in the open market, by block purchases, through plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or in privately-negotiated transactions (including pursuant to accelerated share repurchase agreements with investment banks), subject to certain regulatory restrictions on volume, pricing, and timing. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, after July 2, 2015, we are prohibited from repurchasing any of our outstanding securities without the prior written consent of Aetna, other than repurchases of shares of our common stock in connection with the exercise of outstanding stock options or the vesting or settlement of outstanding restricted stock awards. Accordingly, as announced on July 3, 2015, we have suspended our share repurchase program. Our remaining repurchase authorization was $1.04 billion as of July 3, 2015. On November 7, 2014, we announced that we had entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement, or ASR Agreement, with Goldman, Sachs & Co., or Goldman Sachs, to repurchase $500 million of our common stock as part of the $2 billion share repurchase program authorized in September 2014. Under the ASR Agreement, on November 10, 2014, we made a payment of $500 million to Goldman Sachs from available cash on hand and received an initial delivery of 3.06 million shares of our common stock from Goldman Sachs based on the then current market price of Humana common stock. The payment to Goldman Sachs was recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity, consisting of a $400 million increase in treasury stock, which reflected the value of the initial 3.06 million shares received upon initial settlement, and a $100 million decrease in capital in excess of par value, which reflected the value of stock held back by Goldman Sachs pending final settlement of the ASR Agreement. Upon settlement of the ASR on March 13, 2015, we received an additional 0.36 million shares as determined by the average daily volume weighted-average share price of our common stock during the term of the ASR Agreement of $146.21, bringing the total shares received under this program to 3.42 million. In addition, upon settlement we reclassified the $100 million value of stock initially held back by Goldman Sachs from capital in excess of par value to treasury stock. Excluding the 0.36 million shares received in March 2015 upon final settlement of our ASR Agreement for which no cash was paid during the period, we repurchased 0.15 million shares for $26 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 pursuant to our September 2014 repurchase program. No repurchases were made during the three months ended March 31, 2016. In connection with employee stock plans, we acquired 0.43 million common shares for $71 million and 0.25 million common shares for $40 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Treasury Stock Reissuance We reissued 1.15 million shares of treasury stock during the three months ended March 31, 2016 at a cost of $76 million associated with restricted stock unit vestings and option exercises. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Accumulated other comprehensive income included, net of tax, net unrealized gains on our investment securities of $144 million at March 31, 2016 and $58 million at December 31, 2015. In addition, accumulated other comprehensive income included, net of tax, $68 million at March 31, 2016 for an additional liability that would exist on our closed block of long-term care insurance policies if unrealized gains on the sale of the investments backing such products had been realized and the proceeds reinvested at then current yields. There was no such liability at December 31, 2015. Refer to Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements in our 2015 Form 10-K for further discussion of our long-term care insurance policies.
