AECOM Technology Corporation (ACM), a leading provider of professional technical and management support services for government and commercial clients around the world, announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of its common stock.

“This repurchase authorization reflects our confidence in AECOM’s long-term outlook and the focus of our capital-allocation strategy on driving sustainable returns as we continue to make progress in areas such as balanced growth, profitability and liquidity,” said John M. Dionisio, AECOM chairman and chief executive officer.

AECOM completed its first share-repurchase program, worth $200 million, during the third quarter of its fiscal year 2012.
