Arconic Inc. (NYSE: ARNC) today announced that it has entered into an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC to repurchase $200 million of Arconic’s common stock, pursuant to the share repurchase program previously authorized by the Board of Directors.

Under the ASR agreement, Arconic will receive initial delivery of approximately 6.8 million shares on August 8, 2019.
