Capital Stock | 9. Capital Stock Preference shares After completion of the Company’s initial public offering in 2012, a total of 20,000,000 preference shares, with a $0.00045 par value per share, were authorized. There were no preference shares issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2022 and January 31, 2022, respectively. Ordinary shares As of October 31, 2022 and January 31, 2022, a total of 200,000,000 ordinary shares were authorized. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company added 466,285 ordinary shares to the ordinary shares reserved for issuance, pursuant to an “evergreen” provision contained in the Amended and Restated 2012 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP. Pursuant to such provision, for each fiscal year, the number of ordinary shares reserved for issuance under the ESPP is automatically increased by a number equal to the lesser of (i) 1,500,000 ordinary shares, (ii) one and one quarter percent (1.25%) of the aggregate number of ordinary shares outstanding on February 1st of each fiscal year, or (iii) an amount determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors. As of October 31, 2022 and January 31, 2022, the following ordinary shares were reserved for future issuance under the Company’s equity plans and ESPP:
|  | As of |
|  | October 31, 2022 |  |  | January 31, 2022 |

Stock repurchase program On May 27, 2022, the Company’ s Board of Directors approved an extension of the current share repurchase program for an additional twelve months ending June 30, 2023. There were no ordinary shares repurchased in the nine months ended October 31, 2022. As of October 31, 2022, there was approximately $49.0 million available for repurchases under the current repurchase program through June 30, 2023. Repurchases may be made from time-to-time through open market purchases, 10b5-1 plans or privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other relevant factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of ordinary shares, and it may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion. The repurchase program is funded using the Company’s working capital and any repurchased shares are recorded as authorized but unissued shares.
