Share-based Compensation

At its discretion, the Company grants share option awards, nonvested share awards and nonvested share unit awards to certain employees, as defined by ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, under the Company’s 2007 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, as amended and restated in April 2011 and April 2016 (the “Amended 2007 Plan”), and accounts for its share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718. The Company recognized $0.6 million and $1.8 million in share-based compensation expense for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 1, 2017, respectively, compared to $0.5 million and $1.8 million in share-based compensation expense for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 2, 2016, respectively.

Share Option Awards

Share option awards granted by the Company generally vest and become exercisable in four equal annual installments of 25% per year with a maximum life of ten years. The exercise price of share option awards is equal to the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. No share option awards were granted in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2017 and 2016.

As of October 1, 2017, there was $0.1 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested share option awards granted. That expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.

Nonvested Share Awards and Nonvested Share Unit Awards

Nonvested share awards and nonvested share unit awards granted by the Company have historically vested from the date of grant in four equal annual installments of 25% per year. In accordance with the Company’s Director Compensation Program, nonvested share awards and nonvested share unit awards granted by the Company to non-employee directors vest 100% on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Nonvested share awards are delivered to the recipient upon their vesting. With respect to nonvested share unit awards, vested shares will be delivered to the recipient on the tenth business day of January following the year in which the recipient’s service to the Company is terminated. The total fair value of nonvested share awards which vested during the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2017 and 2016 was $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The total fair value of nonvested share unit awards which vested during the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2017 and 2016 was $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

The Company granted 191,000 and 166,980 nonvested share awards in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively. The weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of the Company’s nonvested share awards granted in the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2017 and 2016 was $14.88 and $11.35, respectively.
