Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] |
Stockholders' Equity | Stockholders’ Equity Preferred Stock We may issue up to 5.0 million shares of our preferred stock in one or more series. 0.5 million of these shares are designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock. Our Board of Directors is authorized to fix the rights and terms for any series of preferred stock without additional shareholder approval. Common Stock Our Articles of Organization authorize us to issue up to 500 million shares of our common stock. Our Board of Directors has periodically authorized the repurchase of shares of our common stock. We were authorized to repurchase up to $100 million worth of shares with cash from operations for each of our fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012. Additionally, on August 4, 2014, our Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase up to an additional $600 million of our common stock through September 30, 2017. We intend to use cash from operations and borrowings under our credit facility to make such repurchases. In connection with this expanded repurchase authorization, in the fourth quarter of 2014 we entered into the $125 million accelerated share repurchase agreement described below. We repurchased 5.1 million shares at a cost of $224.9 million in 2014 (including $37.5 million held by the bank pending final settlement of the ASR described below), 3.1 million shares at a cost of $74.9 million in 2013 and 1.6 million shares at a cost of $35.0 million in 2012. All shares of our common stock repurchased are automatically restored to the status of authorized and unissued. Future repurchases of shares will reduce our cash balances. On August 14, 2014, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with a major financial institution (“Bank”). The ASR allows us to buy a large number of shares immediately at a purchase price determined by an average market price over a period of time. Under the ASR, we agreed to purchase $125.0 million of our common stock, in total, with an initial delivery to us of 2,300,210 shares (“Initial Shares”) of our common stock by the Bank. The Initial Shares represent the number of shares at the current market price equal to 70% of the total fixed purchase price of $125.0 million. The repurchased shares were retired and returned to an unissued status. The par value of the repurchased shares of $23 thousand was deducted from common stock and the excess repurchase price over the par value of $87.5 million was deducted from additional paid-in capital. The remainder of the total purchase price of $37.5 million reflects the value of the stock held by the Bank pending final settlement and, accordingly, was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. Final settlement of the ASR will occur no later than February 17, 2015 at the Bank’s discretion. Upon settlement of the ASR, the total shares repurchased by us will be determined based on a share price equal to the daily volume weighted-average price (“VWAP”) of our common stock during the term of the ASR program, less a fixed per share discount amount. At settlement, the Bank will deliver additional shares to us in the event total shares are greater than the 2,300,210 shares initially delivered, and we will issue additional shares or cash to the Bank, at our option, in the event total shares are less than the shares initially delivered. The receipt or issuance of additional shares will result in a reclassification between additional paid-in capital and common stock equal to the par value of the additional shares received or issued. The number of shares that may be required to be issued by us under the ASR to the Bank is limited to the lesser of (i) 25 million shares and (ii) 20% of the total number of our shares outstanding. We reflected the unsettled portion of the ASR ($37.5 million) as a forward contract indexed to our common stock. The forward contract met all of the applicable criteria for equity classification, and, therefore, was not accounted for as a derivative instrument. As of September 30, 2014, based on the VWAP of our common stock for the period August 14, 2014 through September 30, 2014, settlement of the ASR would have resulted in 982,419 additional shares delivered by the Bank to us.
