Lowes Cos. (LOW) has set aside an additional $5 billion to buy
back shares.
As of Jan. 30, the company had $2.4 billion available under a
previous authorization.
The retailer has benefited from a rebounding home-improvement
sector, a trend it expects to continue in 2015.
Shares, trading near all-time highs, edged up to $75.52 in
recent after-hours trading.
Through Wednesday's close, the stock had risen nearly 52% over
the past 12 months.
