15. Stockholders' Equity

        Common and Preferred Stock.    The Company has 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, authorized, with 54,707,810 and 59,631,459 shares issued at fiscal year end 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company has 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, authorized, with none issued or outstanding at fiscal year end 2013 and 2012. Rights, preferences and other terms of preferred stock will be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of issuance.

        Common Stock Repurchase Programs.    Purchases of the Company's common stock are made from time to time pursuant to its repurchase programs, subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through the open market. Repurchased shares of common stock are recorded at cost and become authorized but unissued shares which may be issued in the future for general corporate or other purposes. The Company may terminate or limit its stock repurchase program at any time. In the event the repurchased shares are cancelled, the Company accounts for retirements by allocating the repurchase price to common stock, additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. The repurchase price allocation is based upon the equity contribution associated with historical issuances. The repurchase programs are conducted pursuant to Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

        During the period from the announcement of the Company's $750 million and $1 billion buyback authorizations in August 2010 and December 2012, respectively, until the end of the fiscal year 2013, the Company has repurchased approximately $1.3 billion of its common stock, representing approximately 14.5 million shares. The Company has not repurchased any shares under the $30 million repurchase plan authorized in 2010.

        During fiscal year 2013, the Company effectively retired 5.3 million shares of common stock repurchased under its repurchase programs. The effective retirement of repurchased common stock decreased common stock by $53,000, additional paid-in capital by $7.6 million, retained earnings by $567.2 million and treasury stock by $574.8 million. At December 29, 2012 and December 28, 2013, all treasury stock had been effectively retired. As of December 28, 2013, the Company had $493.7 million of repurchase authorizations remaining under the combined repurchase plans.
