Since initiating the share repurchase program in 2011, we have repurchased 62.2 million shares of our common stock for a total of $5.9 billion at an average price of $95.01 per share. This represents a reduction of approximately 59% of our shares outstanding since the time we began the program. 2026-2027 Sales Backlog The consolidated two-year 2026-2027 core sales backlog is $1.325 billion and will drive continued global revenue growth and sales diversification. The core sales backlog excludes the impact of non-core products winding down in our E-Systems segment. 4 2026 Financial Outlook At the midpoint of our guidance range, we have assumed that global industry production will be 1% lower than in 2025 on a Lear sales-weighted basis.
