In June 2021, the Board authorized an anti-dilutive share repurchase program of up to $250 million (June 2021 program) to offset the impact of dilution from shares issued under our stock compensation programs. The June 2021 program has no expiration date, but it may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchases under the June 2021 program may be made in open-market or privately negotiated transactions.
In September 2021, the Board approved a strategic share repurchase program of up to $500 million (September 2021 program). The September 2021 program has no expiration date, but it may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchases under the September 2021 program may be made in open-market or privately negotiated transactions.
During the nine-month period ended April 30, 2023, we repurchased 2.692 million shares at a cost of $141 million. Of this amount, $67 million was used to repurchase shares pursuant to our June 2021 program and $74 million was used to repurchase shares pursuant to our September 2021 program. As of April 30, 2023, approximately $104 million remained available under the June 2021 program and approximately $301 million remained available under the September 2021 program. During the nine-month period ended May 1, 2022, we repurchased approximately 2.7 million shares at a cost of $116 million.
