Restricted Stock Units

We grant (i) RSUs with a service condition, (ii) RSUs with performance and service conditions (“PSUs”), and (iii) RSUs with market and service conditions (“MSUs”) as further explained below.  

The number of annual PSUs that ultimately vest depends on us attaining financial metrics for the fiscal year as well as on the employee’s continued employment through the vesting date. The compensation committee and board of directors typically certify PSU attainment in the first quarter of each year.

On April 12, 2021, and May 20, 2021, we granted a total of 83,750 shares of MSUs, to certain executives. The MSUs are eligible to vest based on our total stockholder return (“TSR”) relative to the TSR of the constituents comprising the S&P Semiconductor Select Industry Index over two measurement periods. Half of the MSUs are eligible to vest based on our relative TSR during the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2022, and half of the MSUs are eligible to vest based on our relative TSR during the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2023. We use a Monte Carlo simulation in estimating the fair value at grant date and recognize compensation cost over the implied service period. The aggregate grant-date fair value of these shares was estimated to be $6.4 million using the Monte Carlo simulation valuation method.
