Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] |
Shareholders' Equity | Shareholders' Equity Share Capital As of March 31, 2025, the Company's nominal share capital is CHF 42.2 million, consisting of 168,994,142 issued shares with a par value of CHF 0.25 each, of which 20,485,124 were held in treasury shares. The capital band under Swiss law allows a company's board of directors to adjust the company's share capital within a predefined range based on a general authority granted by the company's shareholders. At the 2023 Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to introduce a capital band provision authorizing the Board of Directors to adjust the Company's share capital, without additional shareholder approval, within a range of 155,795,958 registered shares to 190,417,282 registered shares for the five-year period ending on September 13, 2028. In addition, the Company has reserved conditional capital (1) up to 25,000,000 shares for potential issuance for the exercise of rights granted under the Company's employee equity incentive plans, and (2) up to 25,000,000 shares for issuance to cover any conversion rights under any potential future convertible bond issuance. In September 2024, the Company's Board of Directors approved the cancellation of 4.1 million treasury shares, which were repurchased in fiscal year 2024 for an aggregate cost of $332.1 million under the 2023 share repurchase program. The cancellation became effective in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, and as a result both the number of registered shares issued and the number of treasury shares outstanding decreased by 4.1 million shares. Upon cancellation of these shares, the Company deducted the par value from registered shares and reflected the excess of share repurchase cost over par value as a reduction to retained earnings. Dividends Pursuant to Swiss corporate law, the payment of dividends is limited to certain amounts of unappropriated retained earnings (approximately CHF 812.0 million, or USD equivalent of $921.8 million as of March 31, 2025) and is subject to shareholder approval. In May 2025, the Board of Directors recommended that the Company pay cash dividends for fiscal year 2025 of CHF 1.26 per share (USD equivalent of approximately $1.43 per share, which would result in a gross aggregate dividend of approximately $212.4 million, based on the exchange rate and shares outstanding, net of treasury shares, on March 31, 2025). In September 2024, the Company paid gross cash dividends of CHF 1.16 (USD equivalent of $1.37) per common share, totaling $207.9 million on the Company's outstanding common shares. In September 2023, the Company paid cash dividends of CHF 1.06 (USD equivalent of $1.16) per common share, totaling $182.3 million on the Company’s outstanding common shares. In September 2022, the Company paid cash dividends of CHF 0.96 (USD equivalent of $0.98) per common share, totaling $158.7 million on the Company's outstanding common shares. Any future dividends will be subject to the approval of the Company's shareholders. Legal Reserves Under Swiss corporate law, a minimum of 5% of the Company's annual net income must be retained in a legal reserve until this legal reserve equals 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding aggregate par value per share capital. These legal reserves represent an appropriation of retained earnings that are not available for distribution and totaled $10.9 million at March 31, 2025 (based on the exchange rate at March 31, 2025). Share Repurchases 2020 Share Repurchase Program In May 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved the 2020 share repurchase program, which authorized the Company to use up to $250.0 million to purchase Logitech shares to support equity incentive plans or potential acquisitions. Shares may be repurchased from time to time on the open market, through block trades or otherwise. Purchases may be started or stopped at any time without prior notice depending on market conditions and other factors. In 2021 and 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved increases to the 2020 share repurchase program, to an aggregate amount of up to $1.5 billion. The 2020 share repurchase program expired on July 27, 2023. 2023 Share Repurchase Program In June 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new, three-year share repurchase program, which allows the Company to use up to $1.0 billion to repurchase its shares. The 2023 share repurchase program enables the Company to repurchase shares for cancellation, as well as to support equity incentive plans or potential acquisitions. The Swiss Takeover Board approved the 2023 share repurchase program in July 2023 and the program became effective on July 28, 2023. As of March 31, 2025, $48.3 million was available for repurchase under the 2023 share repurchase program. In March 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase of $600.0 million to the 2023 share repurchase program, to an aggregate amount of $1.6 billion. The Swiss Takeover Board approved this increase in April 2025 and it became effective on April 2, 2025. The following table summarizes the Company's share repurchase activities for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(1) In fiscal year 2025, all shares were repurchased for cancellation. In fiscal year 2024, 4.1 million shares in an aggregate cost of $332.1 million were repurchased for cancellation and the remaining shares were repurchased to support equity incentive plans. (2) Includes an aggregate cost of $18.7 million and $19.5 million, respectively, that was not yet paid as of March 31, 2025 and 2024. (3) Shares were repurchased to support equity incentive plans. Swiss law limits a company’s ability to hold or repurchase its own shares. The aggregate par value of all shares held in treasury by the Company and its subsidiaries may not exceed 10% of the share capital of the Company, which for the Company corresponds to approximately 16.9 million registered shares as of March 31, 2025. This limitation does not apply to shares repurchased for cancellation, due to the Board of Directors’ authority under the Company’s capital band set forth in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had a total of 20.5 million shares held in treasury stock, which includes 6.7 million shares that have been repurchased for cancellation and 13.8 million shares that have been purchased to support equity incentive plans or potential acquisitions. To the extent that the shares are repurchased to support equity incentive plans or potential acquisitions, the shares are repurchased on the ordinary trading line of SIX Swiss Exchange (“SIX”) and/or The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”). Shares repurchased for cancellation purposes are repurchased on a second trading line on SIX. Shares may be repurchased from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including under plans complying with the provisions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Purchases may be started or stopped at any time without prior notice depending on market conditions and other factors and the program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares.
