Share Repurchase Program In July 2023 we announced a program authorized by our Board of Directors to repurchase up to $75 million of our common stock. We began repurchases in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 and successfully completed the program in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024. We purchased a total of approximately 1,007,000 shares of our common stock under the program. The repurchases were made on the open market pursuant to a trading plan established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which permitted us to repurchase common stock at times when we might otherwise have been precluded from doing so under insider trading laws or self-imposed trading restrictions. We have no plans to continue repurchases or adopt a new repurchase plan at this time. However, the Board of Directors could choose to commence another program in the future at its discretion after its review of the Company’s financial performance and anticipated capital requirements. Share repurchase activity under the Company’s repurchase programs for the periods indicated was as follows (total cost in thousands):
