Share-Based Compensation

14.Share-Based Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the administration of the Company’s stock incentive plans. In general, the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) provides for grants of restricted stock and performance-based awards to be issued with a per-share price not less than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant. The Company accounts for forfeitures of awards as they are incurred.

In May 2024, shareholders approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which became effective on September 16, 2024. The Company has reserved a total of 1,000,000 shares under the ESPP, all of which are authorized and available for future issuance under the ESPP. During the year ended December 31, 2025, there were 154,006 shares issued under the ESPP.

The table below presents the share-based compensation expense included in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations:

(1)A maximum of 1.2 million common shares could be awarded based upon the Company’s achievement of set performance-metrics.

In 2025, the Company granted certain executives a total of 293,073 performance-based units. The performance-based units will potentially vest 100% if the target is met, with 50% of the units to be earned based on the achievement of an absolute adjusted EBITDA target, measured in the final year of a three-year performance period and 50% of the units to be earned based on the achievement of an objective, tiered return on relative total shareholder return, measured over a three-year performance period. The fair value of the grants awarded related to the adjusted EBITDA target was $5.89 per share and

the fair value of the grants awarded related to the relative total shareholder return target was $8.45 per share valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

In 2024, the Company granted certain executives a total of 205,322 performance-based units. The performance-based units will potentially vest 100% if the target is met, with 50% of the units to be earned based on the achievement of an objective, tiered return on invested capital, measured over a three-year performance period and 50% of the units to be earned based on the achievement of an objective, tiered return on relative total shareholder return, measured over a three-year performance period. The fair value of the grants awarded related to the return on invested capital was $8.36 per share and the fair value of the grants awarded related to the relative total shareholder return was $14.22 per share, valued using a Monte Carlo simulation.

In 2023, the Company granted certain executives as total of 328,909 performance-based units. The performance based-units will potentially vest 100% if the target is met, with 75% of the units to be earned based on the achievement of an objective, tiered return on invested capital, measured over a three-year performance period and 25% of the units to be earned based on the achievement of an average closing stock price at the end of the three-year performance period. The fair value of the grants awarded related to the return on invested capital was $2.65 per share and the fair value of the grants awarded related to achievement of an average closing stock price at the end of the three-year performance period was $0.99 per share, valued using a Monte Carlo simulation.
