Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] |
Equity | Equity As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company's charter had authorized for issuance a total of 280,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company: i.issued 1,902 shares of common stock in connection with stock options exercised; ii.issued 2,747 common shares through the Company's dividend reinvestment plan; iii.issued 165,545 common shares in connection with restricted stock grants and the conversion of performance awards to restricted shares; iv.withheld 74,173 common shares to satisfy employees' tax withholding and other liabilities; v.issued 20,161 common shares through the Employee Stock Purchase Plan; vi.canceled 7,683 common shares of restricted stock upon forfeiture; and vii.purchased 1,225,790 common shares through the 2020 Stock Repurchase Program, discussed below. Any deferred compensation related to the Company’s stock option, restricted stock and performance award grants during the year ended December 31, 2020 is not reflected on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020, and will not be reflected until recognized as compensation cost. In July 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors voted to terminate the Company’s prior $500,000,000 Stock Repurchase Program (the "Amended 2005 Stock Repurchase Program") and approved a new stock repurchase program under which the Company may acquire shares of its common stock in open market or negotiated transactions up to an aggregate purchase price of $500,000,000 (the "2020 Stock Repurchase Program"). Purchases of common stock under the 2020 Stock Repurchase Program may be exercised from time to time in the Company’s discretion and in such amounts as market conditions warrant. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The 2020 Stock Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date and may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company repurchased 1,225,790 shares of common stock at an average price of $149.99 per share. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $316,148,000 remaining authorized for purchase under this program. In May 2019, the Company commenced a fifth continuous equity program ("CEP V") under which the Company may sell (and/or enter into forward sale agreements for the sale of) up to $1,000,000,000 of its common stock from time to time. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company, including market conditions, the trading price of the Company's common stock and determinations by the Company of the appropriate sources of funding for the Company. In conjunction with CEP V, the Company engaged sales agents who will receive compensation of up to 1.5% of the gross sales price for shares sold. The Company expects that, if entered into, it will physically settle each forward sale agreement on one or more dates specified by the Company on or prior to the maturity date of that particular forward sale agreement, in which case the Company will expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares underlying the particular forward agreement multiplied by the relevant forward sale price. However, the Company may also elect to cash settle or net share settle a forward sale agreement. In connection with each forward sale agreement, the Company will pay the relevant forward seller, in the form of a reduced initial forward sale price, a commission of up to 1.5% of the sales prices of all borrowed shares of common stock sold. During 2020, the Company had no sales under the program. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $752,878,000 remaining authorized for issuance under CEP V.
