The filing states that the timing and amount of any repurchases will be determined by management based on market conditions and other considerations. Repurchases may be executed in the open market, through derivative, accelerated repurchase and other negotiated transactions, and through plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

For investors, the key takeaway is a new buyback authorization of up to $1.0 billionb for calendar 2025. The authorization is a ceiling rather than a commitment, so actual repurchase volume and pacing remain at management's discretion.
