STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST Stockholders' Equity Changes in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss by Component Comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation adjustments. Foreign currency translation adjustments related to indefinite investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries are not adjusted for income taxes. Dividend Program During the first quarter of 2020, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.56 per common share. During each of the four quarters of 2019, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.53 per common share. Share Repurchase Program As of March 31, 2020, $1.2 billion remained available under the Company’s share repurchase authorizations; however the Company has temporarily suspended additional share repurchases under the existing authorization through the end of 2020. The share repurchase authorization has no set expiration or termination date. Share Repurchases For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company repurchased 0.7 million shares of its common stock for $75 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company repurchased 0.6 million shares of its common stock for $50 million. Shares Reissued from Treasury Stock For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company reissued 1.1 million shares and 0.4 million shares, respectively, from treasury stock for shares issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and stock option plans. For details regarding the Company's stock ownership and compensation plans, see Note 17 to the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest In connection with the sale of an 18.9% noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary to UMass on July 1, 2015, the Company granted UMass the right to require the Company to purchase all of its interest in the subsidiary at fair value commencing July 1, 2020. The subsidiary performs diagnostic information services in a defined territory within the state of Massachusetts. Since the redemption of the noncontrolling interest is outside of the Company's control, it has been presented outside of stockholders' equity at the greater of its carrying amount or its fair value. The Company records changes in the fair value of the noncontrolling interest immediately as they occur. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the redeemable noncontrolling interest was presented at its fair value. For further information regarding the fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, see Note 6.
