Item 8.01 Other Events
Stock Repurchase Program
On August 19, 2021, Trimble announced that its board of directors approved the repurchase of up to $750 million of its common stock. The stock repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and replaces the prior authorization of $600 million, of which $50.7 million was remaining and has been cancelled.
Under the stock repurchase program, Trimble may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions, privately-negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers, or by other means. The timing and actual number of any shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, Trimble’s share price, other available uses of capital, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. The program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
Year to date, Trimble repurchased approximately 0.6 million shares of its common stock in open market purchases at an average price of $71.24 per share for a total of approximately $40 million, which was under the prior authorization.
The press release announcing the stock repurchase program is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference.
