Stock Repurchase Program. On July 26, 2018, we announced a stock repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $30 billion of our common stock. In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, to maintain our financial liquidity position and flexibility, we suspended our stock repurchases, at least for the near-term, in light of COVID-19.
In the nine months ended June 28, 2020 and June 30, 2019, we repurchased and retired 30.9 million and 17.7 million shares for $2.5 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, before commissions. To reflect share repurchases in the consolidated balance sheet, we (i) reduce common stock for the par value of the shares, (ii) reduce paid-in capital for the amount in excess of par to zero during the quarter in which the shares are repurchased and (iii) record the residual amount, if any, to retained earnings. At June 28, 2020, $4.6 billion remained authorized for repurchase under our stock repurchase program.
Dividends. On July 15, 2020, we announced a cash dividend of $0.65 per share on our common stock, payable on September 24, 2020 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 3, 2020.
Earnings Per Common Share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the combination of the weighted-average number of dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under our share-based compensation plans and shares subject to accelerated share repurchase agreements, if any, and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The following table provides information about the diluted earnings per share calculation (in millions):
