SAN JOSE, Calif. --(Business Wire)--
Adobe Systems (News - Alert) Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today announced its Board of
Directors has approved a new stock repurchase program granting the
company authority to repurchase up to $2.0 billion in common stock
through the end of fiscal 2015. Under the new stock repurchase program,
which is designed to return value to Adobe's stockholders and minimize
dilution from stock issuances, the company will repurchase shares in the
open market and also enter into structured repurchase agreements with
third parties. The new stock repurchase program approved by Adobe's
Board of Directors is substantially similar to the company's previous
program authorizing the repurchase of up to $1.6 billion in common stock
through fiscal 2012, which authority has been exhausted.
"This stockrepurchase program reaffirms our confidence and optimism in
the long-term future of Adobe, and our commitment to returning value to
our stockholders," said Mark Garrett, executive vice president and chief
financial officer, Adobe.
