• Board authorized repurchases of up to $500,000,000 of common shares.

Why It Matters
A board‑authorized repurchase program is a capital allocation decision that can reduce the number of shares outstanding and potentially support per‑share metrics. The NCIB application is a regulatory step required in the relevant markets for the company to carry out open‑market buybacks. Investors should note this is an authorization and intent to apply — the filing does not provide timing, funding source, maximum daily purchases, or an exact start date for repurchases.
