Item 8.01 Other Events.
On September 17, 2012, Flextronics International Ltd. (the “Company”) announced that its Board of Directors has approved a new share repurchase program. Repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase plans are subject to an aggregate limit under Singapore law of 10% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares as of the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting held on August 30, 2012. This new authorization permits the repurchase of ordinary shares up to the current maximum under the 10% limitation. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, market conditions and applicable legal requirements. Share repurchases, if any, will be made in the open market. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase a specific number of shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.
