The Company and its predecessors has paid a consecutive dividend since 1887, including most recently a dividend of $0.40 per share in the first fiscal quarter of 2026, a $0.03 cent increase over the previous quarterly dividend. The timing, declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of the Company’s ordinary shares will depend upon many factors, including the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, the capital requirements of its businesses, industry practice and any other relevant factors.
In June 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $9.0 billion increase to the Company's share repurchase authorization, adding to the $1.1 billion remaining as of March 31, 2025 under the prior share repurchase authorization approved in 2021. The share repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and may be amended or terminated by
the Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. On August 7, 2025, the Company entered into accelerated share repurchase transactions (the “ASR Transactions”) to repurchase an aggregate of $5.0 billion (the “Repurchase Price”) of the Company’s ordinary shares (the “Shares”). The ASR Transactions are being completed under the Company’s current share repurchase authorization. Under the terms of the ASR Transactions, on August 11, 2025, the Company paid the Repurchase Price to the Counterparties in exchange for an initial delivery of approximately 43,140,640 Shares. The total number of Shares to be repurchased under the ASR Transactions will be based on volume-weighted average prices of the Shares during the term of the ASR Transactions, less a discount and subject to customary adjustments. The ASR Transactions are scheduled to terminate in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
