At the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 16, 2018, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). Under the 2018 Plan the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that are reserved and available for issuance shall be 2,778,000 plus the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The shares of common stock underlying any awards under the 2018 Plan, 2012 Plan and the Second Amended and Restated 2001 Repligen Corporation Stock Plan (the “2001 Plan,” and together with the 2018 Plan and 2012 Plan, the “Plans”) that are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) shall be added back to the shares of stock available for issuance under the 2018 Plan. At December 31, 2022, 1,904,702 shares were available for future grants under the 2018 Plan.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $27.3 million, $27.5 million and $17.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, for share-based awards granted under the Plans. The following table presents stock-based compensation expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2022		2021		2020
	(Amounts in thousands)
Cost of product revenue	$	2,525	$	2,021	$	1,929
Research and development		2,622		2,856		1,534
Selling, general and administrative		22,169		22,623		13,544
Total stock-based compensation	$	27,316	$	27,500	$	17,007

The 2018 Plan allows for the granting of incentive and nonqualified options to purchase shares of common stock, restricted stock and other equity awards. Except for the grant to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) in 2018 mentioned below, employee grants under the Plans generally vest over a three- to five-year period, with 20%-33% vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the remainder vesting in equal yearly installments thereafter. Nonqualified options issued to non-employee directors under the Plans generally vest over one year. In the first quarter of 2018, to create a longer-term retention incentive, the Company’s Compensation Committee granted long-term incentive compensation awards to its CEO which consisted of both stock options and restricted stock units that are subject to time-based vesting over nine years. Options granted under the Plans have a maximum term of ten years from the date of grant and generally, the exercise price of the stock options equals the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. At December 31, 2022, options to purchase 609,965 shares and 531,034 stock units were outstanding under the Plans.

Stock Options

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock option awards on the grant date, and measures stock-based compensation costs of stock options at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award. The Company recognizes expense on awards with service-based vesting over the employee’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for options that are ultimately expected to vest, and accordingly, such compensation expense has been adjusted for estimated forfeitures.

The fair value of stock option awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were calculated using the following estimated assumptions:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2022	2021	2020
Expected term (in years)	5.5-6.5	5.5-6.5	5.5-6.5
Expected volatility (range)	41.44-43.96%	44.57-45.27%	45.14-50.87%
Risk-free interest rate	1.86-4.07%	0.77-1.07%	0.34-1.15%
Expected dividend yield	0%	0%	0%

Information regarding option activity for the year ended December 31, 2022, under the Plans is summarized below:

	Shares			Weighted average exercise price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (in Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in Thousands)
Options outstanding at December 31, 2021		625,107		$	54.15
Granted		87,838		$	190.90
Exercised		(86,980	)	$	42.62
Forfeited/expired/cancelled		(16,000	)	$	196.79
Options outstanding at December 31, 2022		609,965		$	71.74
Options exercisable at December 31, 2022		317,218		$	47.93
Vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2022(1)		594,350		$	71.30		5.85	$	61,155

(1)Represents the number of vested options as of December 31, 2022 plus the number of unvested options expected to vest as of December 31, 2022, based on the unvested outstanding options at December 31, 2022 adjusted for estimated forfeiture rates of 8% for awards granted to non-executive level employees and 3% for awards granted to executive level employees.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing price of the common stock on December 31, 2022, the last business day of 2022, of $169.31 per share and the exercise price of

each in-the-money option) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2022. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $14.1 million, $20.3 million and $36.6 million, respectively.

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $87.40, $88.01 and $53.06, respectively. The total fair value of stock options that vested during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $3.1 million, $3.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

Stock Units

The fair value of stock units is calculated using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company recognizes expense on awards with service-based vesting over the employee's requisite service period on a straight-line basis. Prior to 2020, the Company issued performance stock units to certain employees which are tied to the achievement of certain Company financial goal metrics and the passage of time. Since 2020, the Company has implemented formal programs that issue performance stock units to certain employees set to vest upon the achievement of individual goals and financial goals of the Company, as well as the passage of time. The Company recognizes expense on performance-based awards over the vesting period based on the probability that the performance metrics will be achieved. Information regarding stock unit activity, which includes activity for restricted stock units and performance stock units, for the year ended December 31, 2022 under the Plans is summarized below:

	Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at December 31, 2021		606,685		$	115.11
Awarded		194,633		$	191.61
Vested		(208,531	)	$	98.90
Forfeited/cancelled		(61,753	)	$	161.05
Unvested at December 31, 2022		531,034		$	142.57
Vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2022(1)		505,611		$	138.17

(1)Represents the number of vested stock units as of December 31, 2022, plus the number of unvested stock units expected to vest as of December 31, 2022, based on the unvested outstanding stock units at December 31, 2022 adjusted for estimated forfeiture rates of 8% for awards granted to non-executive level employees and 3% for awards granted to executive level employees.

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock units vested during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $43.9 million, $46.5 million and $28.3 million, respectively. The total fair value of stock units that vested during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $22.7 million, $13.9 million and $10.85 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2022, there was $63.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based awards. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining requisite service period of 3.01 years. The Company expects 2,071,467 unvested options and stock units to vest over the next five years.
