EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION

NOTE 9 – EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION

 

Equity compensation was $2.0 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and October 1, 2021, respectively, and $5.4 million and $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and October 1, 2021, respectively.

  

The Company granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) during 2022 and 2021 to reward, motivate and retain selected management personnel.

 

An additional grant of RSUs was made to a member of the Company’s leadership team on December 31, 2020 to reflect an increase in responsibility.

 

The Company granted its Board of Directors RSUs during 2022 and 2021 as part of their annual board compensation packages.

 

The Company estimates forfeitures of its stock awards. Actual forfeitures may differ from those estimates. The Company currently estimates its forfeitures as 3% of the RSUs awards granted each year but will continue to reassess its estimate on a quarterly basis.

 

Price-Vested Stock Options

 

During the third quarter of 2021, the Company awarded 547,943 of price-vested stock options (the “options” or “stock options”) in aggregate to its Chief Executive, Chief Financial, and Chief Strategy Officers collectively the “option awardees”). These options vested equally in four tranches on the second, third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the option grant date and is dependent upon the option awardees remaining employed by the Company and the stock price on the applicable tranche anniversary to be equal to or exceed a prescribed share price within the stock option agreement. The strike price of each option for each tranche is $10.50, which was the Company’s closing stock price on the option grant date. The Company has valued the options at fair market value based upon a Monte Carlo with Geometric Brown Motion simulation and will recognize the compensation cost for each tranche over a range of 5.17 to 5.93 years with values per option ranging from $2.29 to $3.55. The fair market value of the options as of the grant date was $1.6 million.
