(1) In August 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a standing share repurchase authorization whereby the Company may repurchase up to 20 million shares beginning on January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, 14,596,708 shares remained authorized for repurchase under the August 2023 share repurchase authorization.
(2) On November 10, 2025, the Company entered into a $500.0 million accelerated share repurchase agreement (the "2025 ASR Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JP Morgan") to repurchase its shares in an accelerated share repurchase program (the "2025 ASR Program"). The Company funded the 2025 ASR Program with cash on hand. Under the terms of the 2025 ASR Agreement, the Company paid JP Morgan $500.0 million on November 12, 2025, and on that date received initial delivery of 2,334,010 shares, representing a substantial majority of the shares expected to be retired over the course of the 2025 ASR Program. The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the 2025 ASR Program will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the 2025 ASR Program, less a discount and subject to potential adjustments pursuant to the terms of the 2025 ASR Program. The 2025 ASR Program is scheduled to be completed in the second quarter of 2026, but is subject to early termination in certain circumstances.
