How big is it?
Motorola Solutions bought back $1.1B of stock in the twelve months to Jul 4, 2026. At that pace, $2.0B covers about 1.9 years of buybacks.
The amount equals 75% of its free cash flow over the same twelve months ($2.7B).
Its diluted share count is down 0.9% from a year earlier.
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.
