Share repurchases
Signet may from time to time repurchase common shares under various share repurchase programs authorized by Signet’s Board. Repurchases may be made in the open market through 10b5-1 trading plans, through block trades, through accelerated share repurchase agreements or otherwise. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock prices, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The repurchase programs are funded through Signet’s existing cash reserves and liquidity sources. Repurchased shares are held as treasury shares and used by Signet primarily for issuance of share-based compensation awards, or for general corporate purposes.
The Board authorized repurchases to be made under the 2017 Share Repurchase Program (the “2017 Program”). During Fiscal 2025, the Board authorized an increase in the remaining amount of shares authorized for repurchase under the 2017 Program by $200.0 million, bringing the total authorization to approximately $2.1 billion, with $723.0 million remaining as of February 1, 2025.
Since inception of the 2017 Program, the Company has repurchased approximately $1.6 billion of shares, with $544.9 million of shares authorized for repurchase remaining as of November 1, 2025.
