On October 21, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized share repurchases of up to $500 million of the Company’s common stock in the open market or negotiated transactions, at the discretion of the Company’s management. The extent and timing of repurchases depends on market conditions, applicable regulatory requirements, and other considerations. The share repurchase authorization does not obligate the Company to acquire any minimum amount of common stock and any program may be modified, limited, extended, suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion. The Company currently expects that any repurchases under the program would be made in compliance with the SEC’s Rules 10b-5 and 10b-18.
