Khalil, but if they paid that same money out as dividends (on which you would pay taxes) the book value would decrease by the same amount. When they use the same money to buy shares, the total stock holders equity decreases by that same amount, but there are that fewer share out, thus the impact on the book value per share of buy backs is absolutely nil.
