As of the date of this release, Post had repurchased approximately $488 million under its previous stock repurchase authorizations which together authorized $550 million in repurchases.
Post’s existing $250 million share repurchase authorization, which was approved on June 6, 2017, will be cancelled effective May 6, 2018. Post had repurchased all $300 million under its previous share repurchase authorization, which was approved on February 2, 2016.
