Since the first quarter of 2011, the Company's Board of Directors has authorized $6.1 billion in share repurchases under the common stock share repurchase program. As of the end of the first quarter of 2020, the Company has repurchased, in aggregate, $4.7 billion of its outstanding common stock, at an average price of $90.07 per share, excluding commissions and related fees.
The Company may implement share repurchases through a variety of methods, including, but not limited to, open market purchases, accelerated stock repurchase programs and structured repurchase transactions. The extent to which the Company
will repurchase its outstanding common stock and the timing of such repurchases will depend upon its financial condition, prevailing market conditions, alternative uses of capital and other factors.
In addition to shares repurchased under the Company’s common stock share repurchase program described above, the Company classified shares withheld from the settlement of the Company’s restricted stock unit and performance share awards to cover tax withholding requirements as common stock held in treasury in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
In accordance with GAAP, the Company records redeemable noncontrolling interests at the greater of (1) the initial carrying amount adjusted for the noncontrolling interest holder’s share of total comprehensive income or loss and dividends ("noncontrolling interest carrying value") or (2) the redemption value as of and based on conditions existing as of the reporting date. Required redeemable noncontrolling interest adjustments are recorded as an increase to redeemable noncontrolling interests, with an offsetting adjustment to retained earnings. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is classified in mezzanine equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
