How big is it?
KKR bought back $376M of stock in the twelve months to Sep 30, 2026. At that pace, $500M covers about 1.3 years of buybacks.
The amount equals 24% of its free cash flow over the same twelve months ($2.0B).
An authorization is permission, not a promise: the company can buy less, more slowly, or not at all, and usually doesn't have to say when it buys.
