Treasury Stock Repurchases of Ordinary Shares
On May 7, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program resulting in a share repurchase authorization of approximately $78,979 (net of taxes, fees and commissions). On July 30, 2019, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the May 7, 2019 authorization of an additional amount of $300,000 (net of taxes, fees and commissions). As of September 30, 2020, there was approximately $333,932 (net of taxes, fees and commissions) of remaining availability under the Board authorized share repurchase program. The share repurchase program has no specified expiration date.
Under the authorization, the Company may repurchase its shares from time to time through open market purchases, including 10b5-1 plans. Any share repurchases may be activated, suspended or discontinued at any time. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, share repurchases were suspended on April 9, 2020.
From the start of fiscal 2021 through April 9, 2020, we repurchased 35,000 of our ordinary shares for the aggregate amount of $5,047 (net of fees and commissions) pursuant to the authorizations. During the first six months of fiscal 2020, we repurchased 205,059 of our ordinary shares for the aggregate amount of $30,000 (net of fees and commissions) pursuant to the authorizations.
During the first six months of fiscal 2021 we obtained 76,286 of our ordinary shares in the aggregate amount of $9,386 in connection with share based compensation award programs. During the first six months of fiscal 2020, we obtained 73,914 of our ordinary shares in the aggregate amount of $7,955 in connection with share based compensation award programs.
