Our Board of Directors authorized a $5.0 billion share repurchase program in February 2017. The program, which became effective on February 27, 2017, terminated and replaced a $5.0 billion share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors in June 2011. There is no expiration governing the period over which we can make our share repurchases under the February 2017 $5.0 billion share repurchase program.

The following table presents information regarding the shares we repurchased during the three and six months ended July 29, 2017, and July 30, 2016 ($ and shares in millions, except per share amounts):
