The ASR program provides for the repurchase by Salesforce of an aggregate $25.0 billion of its common stock from certain financial institution counterparties.
Key Details

Why It Matters
A $25 billion ASR is a large capital-return action that will reduce outstanding shares as deliveries continue, which can increase reported earnings per share and reflect management’s allocation of cash toward buybacks. The filing is a Regulation FD disclosure informing investors of the transaction timing and initial settlement steps; further updates may follow as the ASR programs settle.
