Common stock
Shares of common stock outstanding include shares of unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock included in reportable shares outstanding was 0.1 million and 0.2 million shares as of December 31, 2023 and December 25, 2022, respectively.
On October 16, 2019, our Board authorized a $100.0 million addition to our share repurchase program for our outstanding common stock (“2019 authorization”). On January 31, 2022, our Board authorized a $100.0 million addition to our share repurchase program for our outstanding common stock (“2022 authorization”). The share repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and does not have an expiration date. We may choose to purchase shares in the open market, from individual holders, through an accelerated share repurchase agreement or otherwise.
Under the 2019 authorization, we repurchased shares during fiscal 2021 using $16.7 million, and during fiscal 2022 using the remaining $50.0 million. The 2019 authorization was fully utilized as of April 2022. Under the 2019 authorization, we repurchased and retired a total of 4.7 million shares of our common stock over three fiscal years, at an average share price of $21.09. Under the 2022 authorization we repurchased shares using $33.9 million during fiscal 2023 and $11.0 million during fiscal 2022.

Preferred stock
We have authorized 20.0 million shares of blank check preferred stock. The blank check preferred stock is issuable in one or more series, each with such designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions as our Board may determine and set forth in supplemental resolutions at the time of issuance, without further shareholder action. The initial series of blank check preferred stock authorized by the Board was designated as Series A Preferred Stock. We had no outstanding shares of preferred stock in any of the years presented.
