The calculation excluded 0.1 million and 0.3 million share-based awards and options that had an anti-dilutive effect for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

In January 2023, our Board approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of its Class A and/or Class B common shares. The program does not obligate the Company to repurchase a minimum number of shares and is intended to help offset the dilutive effect of equity grants to employees over time. Under this program, the Company may repurchase shares in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has repurchased $95.5 million of the $150.0 million authorized under the repurchase program.
Subsequent Event - Dividends Declared
In October of 2024, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 in the amount of $0.095 per share to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 13, 2024 and will be paid on January 8, 2025.
