How big is it?
Synchrony Financial bought back $3.8B of stock in the twelve months to Sep 30, 2026. At that pace, $1.0B covers about 3 months of buybacks.
Its diluted share count is down 12.8% 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.
