Share repurchase programs often signal a company's confidence in its financial health and future prospects, potentially leading to a positive short-term impact on the stock price. By reducing the number of shares outstanding, EPS may increase, further attracting investors. However, the actual impact depends on market conditions and the execution of the buyback.
