capital surplus on the consolidated balance sheet. On January 28, 2016, the Company received 1.4 million shares of
common stock, representing the remaining 20% of the $725 million notional amount of the ASR, thereby concluding
the ASR. The remaining 1.4 million shares of common stock delivered to the Company by Barclays were placed into
treasury stock in January 2016 and the forward contract was reclassified from capital surplus to treasury stock.
Pursuant to the authorization under the 2013 Repurchase Programs, effective January 2, 2015, the Company entered
into a $2.0 billion fixed dollar ASR agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank (“JP Morgan”). Upon payment of the
$2.0 billion purchase price on January 5, 2015, the Company received a number of shares of its common stock
equal to 80% of the $2.0 billion notional amount of the ASR agreement or approximately 16.8 million shares, which
were placed into treasury stock in January 2015. On May 1, 2015, the Company received approximately 3.1 million
shares of common stock, representing the remaining 20% of the $2.0 billion notional amount of the ASR, thereby
concluding the ASR. The remaining 3.1 million shares of common stock delivered to the Company by JP Morgan
were placed into treasury stock in May 2015. The ASR was accounted for as an initial treasury stock transaction for
$1.6 billion and a forward contract for $0.4 billion. The forward contract was classified as an equity instrument and
was initially recorded within capital surplus on the consolidated balance sheet and was reclassified to treasury stock
upon the settlement of the ASR in May 2015.
Pursuant to the authorization under the 2012 Repurchase Program, effective October 1, 2013, the Company entered
into a $1.7 billion fixed dollar ASR agreement with Barclays. Upon payment of the $1.7 billion purchase price on
October 1, 2013, the Company received a number of shares of its common stock equal to 50% of the $1.7 billion
notional amount of the ASR agreement or approximately 14.9 million shares at a price of $56.88 per share. The
Company received approximately 11.7 million shares of common stock on December 30, 2013 at an average price
of $63.83 per share, representing the remaining 50% of the $1.7 billion notional amount of the ASR agreement and
thereby concluding the agreement. The total of 26.6 million shares of common stock delivered to the Company
by Barclays over the term of the October 2013 ASR agreement were placed into treasury stock. The ASR was
accounted for as an initial treasury stock transaction and a forward contract. The forward contract was classified
as an equity instrument.
Each of the ASR transactions described above, the initial repurchase of the shares and delivery of the remainder
of the shares to conclude each ASR, resulted in an immediate reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate
the weighted average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share.
