Share-based Compensation

Note 17.  Share-based Compensation

At December 31, 2012, the Company had four share-based employee compensation plans (the “Old Plan”, the “2003 Plan”, the 2006 Long-term Incentive Plan, or “2006 LTIP” and the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan or “2011 LTIP”).

At December 31, 2012, there were 2,905 options outstanding.  Of those, 1,570 were options issued under the 2006 LTIP, 852 were issued under the 2003 Plan, and 483 under the 2011 Plan.  There are no further shares authorized to be issued under the Old Plan.  Under the 2003 Plan, 1,125 shares were authorized to be issued, with 61 shares under options having already been exercised under that plan since its inception, leaving a balance of 212 shares in that plan for future issuances.  The 2003 Plan expires on February 13, 2013 and will continue to exist only to administer existing outstanding options.  Under the 2006 LTIP, 2,500 shares were authorized to be issued, with 218 shares under options having already been exercised and 708 shares of restricted stock having already vested under the plan since its inception.  At December 31, 2012, a balance of 4 shares is available in the 2006 LTIP for future issuances.

Under the 2011 LTIP, 1,500 shares were authorized to be issued.  As of December 31, 2012, 3 shares of restricted stock have vested under the plan, leaving a balance of 1,014 shares available in the 2011 LTIP for future issuances.

The following tables presents all share-based compensation costs recognized in our statements of income, substantially all of which is reflected in the selling, general and administrative expense line:

Stock Options

The Company measures share-based compensation cost for options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The following table presents the weighted average assumptions used to estimate fair values of the stock options granted during the six months ended December 31 and the estimated annual forfeiture rates used to recognize the associated compensation expense:

	Incentive Stock Options FY 2013			Non- qualified Stock Options FY 2013			Incentive Stock Options FY 2012			Non- qualified Stock Options FY 2012
Risk-free interest rate	—		%	1.0		%	1.1		%	1.0		%
Expected volatility	—		%	61.5		%	63.6		%	63.9		%
Expected dividend yield	—		%	—		%	—		%	—		%
Forfeiture rate	—		%	7.50		%	7.50		%	7.50		%
Expected term (in years)	—			6.1 years			5.2 years			5.1 years
Weighted average fair value	$	—		$	2.36		$	2.02		$	1.98

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common shares during the historical period equal to the expected term of the option.  We use historical information to estimate expected term within the valuation model.  The expected term of awards represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.  The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  Compensation cost is recognized using a straight-line method over the vesting or service period and is net of estimated forfeitures.

The forfeiture rate assumption is the estimated annual rate at which unvested awards are expected to be forfeited during the vesting period.  This assumption is based on our historical forfeiture rate.  Periodically, management will assess whether it is necessary to adjust the estimated rate to reflect changes in actual forfeitures or changes in expectations.

Options outstanding that have vested and are expected to vest as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

(In thousands, except weighted average price and life data)	Awards	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (yrs.)
Options vested	1,812	$	7.19	$	824	5.12
Options expected to vest	977	$	3.95	$	994	9.20
Total vested and expected to vest	2,789	$	6.06	$	1,818	6.55

Options with a fair value of approximately $1,192 and $1,596 vested during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

A summary of stock option award activity under the Plans as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and changes during the six months then ended, is presented below:

Restricted Stock

The Company measures restricted stock compensation costs based on the share price at the grant date less an estimate for forfeitures.  The annual forfeiture rate used to calculate compensation expense was 7.5% for six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

A summary of nonvested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and changes during the six months then ended, is presented below:

(In thousands)	Awards		Weighted Average Grant - date Fair Value
Nonvested at July 1, 2012	74		$	515

The Company issues share-based compensation awards with a vesting period ranging up to 3 years and a maximum contractual term of 10 years.  As of December 31, 2012, there was approximately $1,798 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation awards granted under the Plans.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In February 2003, the Company’s shareholders approved an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).  Employees eligible to participate in the ESPP may purchase shares of the Company’s stock at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day of the calendar quarter, or the last day of the calendar quarter.  Under the ESPP, employees can authorize the Company to withhold up to 10% of their compensation during any quarterly offering period, subject to certain limitations.  The ESPP was implemented on April 1, 2003 and is qualified under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Board of Directors authorized an aggregate total of 1,125 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under the ESPP.  During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, 14 shares and 16 shares were issued under the ESPP, respectively.  During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, 46 shares and 29 shares were issued under the ESPP, respectively.  As of December 31, 2012, 385 total cumulative shares have been issued under the ESPP.
