Stockholders' Equity

11. Stockholders’ Equity

In February 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase in the then available amount under the Company’s existing stock repurchase program (the “Stock Repurchase Program”) to allow for the repurchase of up to $500 in the aggregate of the Company’s common stock.

 

In March 2014, pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Program, the Company used proceeds from the 2034 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase approximately 2.7 million shares of its common stock for approximately $163 at a per share price of $60.65 through privately negotiated transactions.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company repurchased 3.5 million shares of its common stock valued at approximately $208 under the Stock Repurchase Program.

Subsequent Event

On October 23, 2014, the Company announced that the Board approved a 3-for-2 stock split (the “Stock Split”) of its outstanding shares of common stock. Stockholders of record at the close of business on November 3, 2014 will receive one additional share of Jarden common stock for every two shares of Jarden common stock owned on that date. The additional shares are expected to be distributed on or about November 24, 2014.
