Cash Dividend — On July 24, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a cash dividend on our common stock in the amount of $0.08 per share to be paid on September 16, 2024 to holders of record as of September 3, 2024. The amount and timing of all future dividend payments, if any, are subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon business conditions, results of operations, financial condition, terms of our debt agreements and other factors. Our Board of Directors may, without advance notice, reduce or suspend our dividend to improve our financial flexibility and position our company for long-term success. There can be no assurance that we will pay a dividend in the future.
Share Repurchases and Acquisitions — In September 2013, our Board of Directors approved a stock buyback program. In February 2024, our Board of Directors approved an increase of the authorization under the stock buyback program to allow for an aggregate of $1.0 billion of future share repurchases. All purchases executed to date have been through open market transactions. Purchases under the buyback program are made at management’s discretion, at prevailing prices, subject to market conditions and other factors. Purchases may be made at any time without prior notice. There is no expiration date associated with the buyback program. As of June 30, 2024, we had remaining authorization to purchase approximately $819 million of our outstanding common stock under the stock buyback program. Shares of stock purchased under the buyback program are held as treasury shares.
