Section 8—Other Events
| Item 8.01. | Other Events. | ||||
The Board of Directors (the "Board") of AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. (the "Company") approved an increase to its share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to an additional $150 million of its common stock, in addition to the $150 million previously authorized by the Board on November 1, 2016 (collectively, the "Increased Company Repurchase Program"). Since 2016, the Company has repurchased 2,561,546 shares of its common stock at an average price of $46.48 per share, resulting in an aggregate purchase price of approximately $119.1 million. As a result, the total maximum dollar value of common stock that may yet to be purchased under the Increased Company Repurchase Program is approximately $180.9 million.
The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price of the Company's shares, trading volume, Company performance, Company liquidity, general economic and market conditions and other factors that the Company's management believes are relevant. The Increased Company Repurchase Program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares, does not have an expiration date, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
Repurchases may be made from cash on hand, free cash flow generated from the Company's business or from the Company's credit facilities. Repurchases may be made from time to time through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases may also be made pursuant to one or more plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, which would permit shares to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading restrictions.
