Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
In November 2020, the Onto Innovation Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase authorization, which allows the Company to repurchase up to $100 million worth of shares of its common stock. Repurchases may be made through both public market and private transactions from time to time with shares purchased being subsequently retired. At June 26, 2021, there was $100 million available for future share repurchases under the share repurchase authorization. For further information, see Note 16, “Share Repurchase Authorization” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In addition to our share repurchase program, we withhold shares of common stock to cover tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock unit awards and stock option exercises under the Company’s equity incentive program. During the three and six months ended June 26, 2021, we withheld 56 thousand and 97 thousand shares through net share settlements. For the three and six months ended June 26, 2021, net share settlements cost $4.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively. Please refer to Note 10, “Share-Based Compensation,” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion regarding our equity incentive plan.
