(1) In November 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new standing share repurchase authorization, whereby the Company may repurchase up to 20 million shares beginning on January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2023. The Company repurchased 3,201,025 shares under the November 2020 authorization during the three months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the number of shares still available for repurchase under the November 2020 share repurchase authorization was 15,974,596.
(2) On August 31, 2022, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the “ASR Agreement”) with Bank of America N.A. (“Bank of America”) pursuant to which it will repurchase $500.0 million of shares (the “ASR Program”). The Company is conducting the ASR Program under the November 2020 share repurchase authorization. The Company funded the ASR Program with commercial paper. Under the terms of the ASR Agreement, the Company paid Bank of America $500.0 million on September 1, 2022 and on that date received initial deliveries of 3,201,025 shares, representing a substantial majority of the shares expected to be retired over the course of the ASR Agreement. The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the ASR Agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the ASR Program, less a discount. The ASR Program is scheduled to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2022, subject to postponement or acceleration under the terms of the ASR Agreement. The actual number of shares repurchased will be determined at the completion of the ASR Program.
