AECOM affirms its capital allocation policy, increases share repurchase authorization to $1 billion and increases its quarterly dividend by 22%

AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting firm, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved increases to both its share repurchase authorization to $1 billion and its quarterly dividend program by 22% to $0.22 per share.

The increased share repurchase authorization builds on the $1.8 billion of shares repurchased since September 2020, which has reduced shares outstanding by 19%.

The increased dividend as declared by the Board, which will be reflected in its next dividend payment on January 19, 2024, to stockholders of record on January 4, 2024, is consistent with the Company’s commitment to annual double-digit increases in the per share value of its dividend.

“As today’s announcement demonstrates, we are committed to our returns-focused capital allocation policy, which is focused on high-returning investments in organic growth followed by returning substantially all available cash flow to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends,” said Troy Rudd, AECOM’s chief executive officer. “Under this policy, we have delivered highly profitable organic revenue growth, built a record design backlog, and returned $2 billion to shareholders since 2020, which has enhanced our total shareholder return. Our competitive advantages, combined with accelerating end market growth and our strong cash flow and balance sheet, underpin our confidence in long-term shareholder value creation.”
