Earnings Per Share Reconciliation [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share and Certain Related Information | Earnings Per Share and Certain Related Information Basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation method that determines EPS for common shares and participating securities. The undistributed earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities as if all earnings had been distributed during the period. Participating securities and common shares have equal rights to undistributed earnings. Net earnings used for the purpose of determining basic and diluted EPS is determined by taking net earnings, less earnings available to participating securities. The following table reconciles the denominator used to compute basic EPS to the denominator used to compute diluted EPS for the three months ended December 27, 2019 and December 28, 2018 (in thousands):

Share Repurchases On January 17, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock, to expire on January 16, 2022 (the "2019 Repurchase Authorization"). During fiscal 2019, the Company launched accelerated share repurchase programs by advancing a total of $500 million to two financial institutions in privately negotiated transactions (collectively, the "2019 ASR Programs"). The specific number of shares that the Company repurchased under the 2019 ASR Programs were determined based generally on a discount to the volume-weighted average price per share of the Company's common stock during a calculation period which ended on June 5, 2019 for the first $250 million in repurchases and on December 4, 2019 for the second $250 million in repurchases. The purchases were recorded as share retirements for purposes of calculating earnings per share. The following table summarizes the activity under the 2019 Repurchase Authorization in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, which relates only to the final non-cash settlement of the second $250 million ASR program.
Amount Authorized (2019 Repurchase Authorization) |  | Average Price Per Share (1) |  | Shares Repurchased |  | Total Shares Retired
$1,000,000,000 |  |  | $91.08 |  |  | 351,486 |  |  | 351,486 |
(1) Includes commissions paid and calculated at the average price per share As of December 27, 2019, the Company h as $393.7 million remaining under the 2019 Repurchase Authorization. On January 16, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional share repurchase program of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock, to expire on January 15, 2023 (the "2020 Repurchase Authorization"). There have been no repurchases under the 2020 Repurchase Authorization as of December 27, 2019. The share repurchase programs do not obligate the Company to purchase any shares. Share repurchases may be executed through various means including, without limitation, accelerated share repurchases, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or otherwise. The authorization for the share repurchase programs may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. The timing, amount and manner of share repurchases may depend upon market conditions and economic circumstances, availability of investment opportunities, the availability and costs of financing, currency fluctuations, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors. Dividend Program On January 16, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per share of the Company’s common stock to be paid on February 28, 2020, to shareholders of record on the close of business on January 31, 2020. Future dividend declarations are subject to review and approval by the Company’s Board of Directors. Dividends paid through the first fiscal quarter of 2020 and the preceding fiscal year are as follows:
