Buying back shares

S&P 500 companies whose diluted share count fell more than 3% in a year, from their 10-K, with the cash they paid for their own shares.

Fewer shares give each remaining share a larger part of the profit. A buyback paid with debt, or at a high price, can cost more than it gives.
