STOCK OPTION AND BENEFIT PLANS STOCK OPTION AND BENEFIT PLANS
The Company’s incentive plan provides for equity and liability awards to employees and non-employee directors in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, stock units, performance shares, performance units, and other stock-based or cash-based awards. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite employee service period, which is generally the vesting period, and is recorded as employee compensation expense in cost of goods sold, research, development and engineering, and selling, general and administrative expenses. Share-based compensation is recognized only for those awards that are expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant based on historical experience and future expectations.
In addition to service conditions, these SARs contain a performance condition. The additional performance condition is based upon the achievement of Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) goals relative to a peer group. All awards with performance conditions are measured over the vesting period and are charged to compensation expense over the requisite service period based on the number of shares expected to vest. The SARs cliff vest after a three-year period from date of grant and expire five years from date of grant.
On July 26, 2019, the Company granted 175,000 SARs under the 2010 Incentive Plan to certain key employees and outside directors at a strike price of $4.93 and a grant date fair value of $1.23. As of June 27, 2020, 150,000 remain outstanding. The grant date fair value for the awards granted during fiscal year 2020, were estimated using the Black Scholes option valuation method with the following weighted average assumptions as of July 26, 2019:
Fiscal Year 2020
 July 26, 2019

On July 27, 2018, the Company granted 161,250 SARs under the 2010 Incentive Plan to certain key employees and outside directors at a strike price of $8.17 and a grant date fair value of $2.27. As of June 27, 2020, 121,250 remain outstanding. The grant date fair value for the awards granted during fiscal year 2019, were estimated using the Black Scholes option valuation method with the following weighted average assumptions as of July 27, 2018:
Fiscal Year 2019

Expected dividend yield—%
Risk – free interest rate2.80%
Expected volatility29.75%

On July 28, 2017, the Company granted 272,500 SARs under the 2010 Incentive Plan to certain key employees and outside directors at a strike price of $7.26 and a grant date fair value of $1.89. As of June 27, 2020, 197,500 remain outstanding. The grant date fair value for the awards granted during fiscal year 2018, were estimated using the Black Scholes option valuation method with the following weighted average assumptions as of July 28, 2017:
Fiscal Year 2018
 July 28, 2017
Expected dividend yield—%
Risk – free interest rate1.70%
Expected volatility29.76%
Expected life4.00
Subsequent to June 27, 2020, the Company granted 155,000 SARs with a strike price of $6.94 and a grant date fair value of $2.32.
Share-based compensation expense is recognized only for those awards that are expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant based on the Company’s historical experience and future expectations. This forfeiture rate will be revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the amount estimated. Share-based compensation expense for fiscal years ended June 27, 2020, June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018 was $0.3 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model is used by the Company for estimating the fair value of SARs. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, particularly for the expected term and expected stock price volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates.
There were no SARs exercised during fiscal year 2020, 2019 or 2018.
As of June 27, 2020, total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements was approximately $0.2 million. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.58 years.
