The company also announced that on February 24, 2011 the Interpublic Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase from time to time up to $300 million of IPG common stock. Repurchases under the program may be effected through open market purchases, trading plans established in accordance with SEC rules, derivative transactions or other means.
