2016 Form 10-K 33
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol ADSK. The following table lists
the intraday high and low sales prices for each quarter in the last two fiscal years.
High Low
Fiscal 2016
First Quarter $ 65.00 $ 53.02
Second Quarter 59.42 49.50
Third Quarter 55.82 42.06
Fourth Quarter 65.78 45.04
Fiscal 2015
First Quarter $ 58.68 $ 44.76
Second Quarter 57.59 46.09
Third Quarter 58.75 48.38
Fourth Quarter 63.00 53.89
Dividends
We did not declare any cash or stock dividends in either fiscal 2016 or fiscal 2015. We anticipate that, for the foreseeable
future, we will not pay any cash or stock dividends.
Stockholders
As of January 31, 2016, the number of common stockholders of record was 458. Because many of our shares of common
stock are held by brokers or other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of
stockholders represented by the record holders.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Autodesk's stock repurchase program is largely to help offset the dilution from the issuance of stock under our employee
stock plans and for such other purposes as may be in the interests of Autodesk and its stockholders, and has the effect of
returning excess cash generated from our business to stockholders. The number of shares acquired and the timing of the
purchases are based on several factors, including general market and economic conditions, the number of employee stock
option exercises and restricted stock unit issuances, the trading price of Autodesk common stock, cash on hand and available in
the United States, cash requirements for acquisitions, and Company defined trading windows. During the three and twelve
months ended January 31, 2016, we repurchased 1.6 million and 8.5 million shares, respectively, of our common stock. At
January 31, 2016, 6.3 million shares remained available for repurchase under the repurchase program approved by the Board of
Directors. This program does not have a fixed expiration date. See Note 9, “Stockholders' Equity,” in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for further discussion.
