Stock Repurchase Programs

In various prior years, our Board of Directors has approved stock repurchase programs authorizing us to purchase shares of our outstanding Class B Common Stock on the open market at prevailing market prices or in negotiated transactions off the market. There is no expiration date for our stock repurchase programs. The most recent approval occurred during 2007 at which time our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 10 million shares, a portion of which (as reflected below) remains available for purchase as of December 31, 2012.

(a.) During 2012, there were 432,562 shares repurchased at an average price of $44.28 per share related to income tax withholding obligations in connection with stock-based compensation programs, and 750 shares repurchased at an average of $.01 per share related to restricted shares that were forfeited by former employees pursuant to the terms of our restricted stock purchase plan. During 2011, there were 217,649 shares repurchased at an average price of $45.51 per share related to income tax withholding obligations in connection with stock-based compensation programs. During 2010, there were 293,933 shares repurchased at an average price of $39.22 per share related to income tax withholding obligations in connection with stock-based compensation programs and 8,000 shares repurchased at an average price of $.01 per share related to restricted shares that were forfeited by former employees pursuant to the terms of our restricted stock purchase plan.

Stock-based Compensation Plans

At December 31, 2012, we have a number of stock-based employee compensation plans. Pursuant to the FASB’s guidance, we expense the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation pursuant to the straight-line method over the stated vesting period of the award using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

The expense associated with share-based compensation arrangements is a non-cash charge. In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, share-based compensation expense is an adjustment to reconcile net income to cash provided by operating activities. The applicable FASB guidance requires that cash flows resulting from tax deductions in excess of compensation cost recognized be classified as financing cash flows. During 2012, 2011 and 2010, there were no net excess tax benefits generated.

Compensation costs related to outstanding stock options were recognized as follows: (i) a pre-tax charge of $20.1 million ($12.5 million after-tax) or $.13 per diluted share during 2012; (ii) a pre-tax charge of $15.8 million ($9.8 million after-tax) or $.10 per diluted share during 2011, and; (ii) a pre-tax charge of $13.3 million ($8.3 million after-tax) or $.08 per diluted share during 2010. In addition, during the years ended 2012, 2011 and 2010, compensation costs of $2.3 million ($1.4 million after-tax), $2.0 million ($1.2 million after-tax) and $3.1 million ($2.0 million after-tax) respectively, were recognized related to restricted stock.

We adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended in 2008 and 2010, (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) which replaced our Amended and Restated 1992 Stock Option Plan which expired in July of 2005. An aggregate of twenty-three million shares of Class B Common Stock has been reserved under the Stock Incentive Plan. There were 2,760,050, 2,561,250 and 69,500 stock options, net of cancellations, granted during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The per option weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2012, 2011 and 2010, was $10.73, $11.62 and $7.84, respectively. Stock options to purchase Class B Common Stock have been granted to our officers, key employees and directors under our above referenced stock option plans. All stock options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of the grant. Options are exercisable ratably over a four-year period beginning one year after the date of the grant. All outstanding options expire five years after the date of the grant.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions derived from averaging the number of options granted during the most recent five-year period that were granted or have vestings after January 1, 2006. The 2010 weighted-average assumptions were based upon seventeen option grants, the 2011 and 2012 weighted-average assumptions were based upon seventeen option grants, the 2011 and 2012 weighted-average assumptions were each based upon eighteen option grants.

The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero coupon four year yield in effect at the time of grant. The expected life of the stock options granted was estimated using the historical behavior of employees. Expected volatility was based on historical volatility for a period equal to the stock option’s expected life. Expected dividend yield is based on our actual dividend yield at the time of grant.

In addition to the Stock Incentive Plan, we have the following stock incentive and purchase plans: (i) the 2010 Employees’ Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (“2010 Plan”), which replaced the Second Amended and Restated 2001 Employees’ Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (“2001 Plan”), which allows eligible participants to purchase shares of Class B Common Stock at par value, subject to certain restrictions, and; (ii) a 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan which allows eligible employees to purchase shares of Class B Common Stock at a ten percent discount. There were 117,901, 98,366 and 94,955 shares issued pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Compensation expense recorded in connection with this plan was $533,000, $461,000 and $339,000 during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

 

We have reserved 6.0 million shares of Class B Common Stock for issuance under these various plans (excluding terminated plans) and have issued approximately 900,000 shares, net of cancellations, pursuant to the terms of these plans (excluding terminated plans) as of December 31, 2012.

During 2012, pursuant to the 2010 Plan, the Compensation Committee ("Committee") approved the issuance of 54,127 restricted shares of our Class B Common Stock at a weighted average price of $36.95 per share ($2.0 million in the aggregate) to our CEO and Chairman of the Board. These shares are scheduled to vest as follows: 50% on the first anniversary date of the grant, and 25% on each of the second and third anniversary dates of the grant, assuming our CEO remains employed by us. In the event that our CEO’s employment is terminated for reasons other than death, disability or retirement, any unvested shares will be forfeited, unless otherwise specified in a separation agreement between us and our CEO. We recorded compensation expense of approximately $1 million during 2012 in connection with this grant. The remaining expense associated with these awards (estimated at approximately $1 million as of December 31, 2012) will be recorded over the remaining vesting periods of the awards, assuming the recipient remain employed by us.

During 2011, pursuant to the 2010 Plan, the Committee approved the issuance of 21,500 restricted shares of our Class B Common Stock at a weighted average price of $53.21 per share ($1.1 million in the aggregate) to various employees. 750 of these shares became vested during 2012 and 750 of these shares were cancelled during 2012. The remaining 20,000 shares are scheduled to vest ratably on the second and third anniversaries of the grant date.

The 2001 Plan, as described above, expired in March, 2010. Under this plan, we had 2.4 million shares of Class B Common Stock reserved for issuance and have issued approximately 1.2 million shares, net of cancellations, pursuant to the terms of this plan as of December 31, 2010, of which 62,044 became fully vested during 2012, 78,133 became fully vested during 2011 and 313,770 became fully vested during 2010.

These shares, which were issued pursuant to a provision in our CEO’s employment agreement, are scheduled to vest ratably on the first, second, third and fourth anniversary dates of the grant, assuming our CEO remains employed by us. In the event that our CEO’s employment is terminated by reason of disability, death, without proper cause or due to breach of the CEO’s employment agreement by us, the vesting of these awards will occur immediately. 12,368 of these shares became fully vested in each of 2012 and 2011.
