Stock-Based Compensation Plans

We maintain the Flowserve Corporation Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2010 Plan"), which is a shareholder-approved plan authorizing the issuance of up to 8,700,000 shares of our common stock in the form of restricted shares, restricted share units and performance-based units (collectively referred to as "Restricted Shares"), incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights and bonus stock. Of the 8,700,000 shares of common stock authorized under the 2010 Plan, 2,187,671 were available for issuance as of June 30, 2018. In 2016 the long-term incentive program was amended to allow Restricted Shares granted after January 1, 2016 to employees who retire and have achieved at least 55 years of age and 10 years of service to continue to vest over the original vesting period ("55/10 Provision"). As of June 30, 2018, 114,943 stock options were outstanding, with a grant date fair value of $2.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately two years. No stock options were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 114,943 stock options granted for the same period in 2017. No stock options vested during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Restricted Shares – Awards of Restricted Shares are valued at the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant. The unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of the restricted shares, except for awards related to the 55/10 Provision which are expensed in the period granted. We had unearned compensation of $31.0 million and $16.7 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately one year. These amounts will be recognized into net earnings in prospective periods as the awards vest. The total fair value of Restricted Shares vested during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $2.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The total fair value of Restricted Shares vested during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $33.7 million and $28.0 million, respectively.

We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $3.4 million ($4.4 million pre-tax) and $2.9 million ($4.3 million pre-tax) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $6.5 million ($8.4 million pre-tax) and $10.4 million ($15.6 million pre-tax) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Performance-based shares granted in 2015 did not vest due to unachievement of performance targets resulting in 100,033 forfeited shares and a $5.4 million reduction of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

The following table summarizes information regarding Restricted Shares:

Unvested Restricted Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2018 included approximately 762,000 units with performance-based vesting provisions. Performance-based units are issuable in common stock and vest upon the achievement of pre-defined performance targets. Performance-based units granted prior to 2017 have performance targets based on our average annual return on net assets over a three-year period as compared with the same measure for a defined peer group for the same period. Performance-based units granted in 2017 and 2018 have performance targets based on our average return on invested capital and our total shareholder return ("TSR") over a three-year period. Most units were granted in three annual grants since January 1, 2016 and have a vesting percentage between 0% and 200% depending on the achievement of the specific performance targets. Except for shares granted under the 55/10 Provision, compensation expense is recognized ratably over a cliff-vesting period of 36 months, based on the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, as adjusted for actual forfeitures. During the performance period, earned and unearned compensation expense is adjusted based on changes in the expected achievement of the performance targets for all performance-based units granted except for the TSR-based units. Vesting provisions range from 0 to approximately 1,523,000 shares based on performance targets. As of June 30, 2018, we estimate vesting of approximately 610,000 shares based on expected achievement of performance targets.
