Carl Icahn spoke again with Tim Cook on Apple stock buyback: Report

Icahn, who has demanded a $150 billion buyback publicly and privately to Apple's Cook since August, had a good conversation with Cook and they both continue to believe the company is undervalued, CNBC reported.

Icahn and Apple were not immediately available for comment.

Icahn also said that he hoped offshore driller Transocean would raise its stock dividend further in the future, CNBC reported.

Switzerland-based Transocean said Monday that it had reached an agreement with Icahn to pay out a $3 dividend and reduce its maximum number of board seats to 11 from 14.

Icahn, who disclosed a 5.6 percent stake in the company in January, had previously pressed for a $4 per share dividend. Transocean shares were up 3.8 percent at $55.5 in afternoon trading.
