STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Our operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 included $3,374 and $3,096 of stock-based compensation costs, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, stock-based compensation costs included in operating income totaled $5,146 and $4,609, respectively.

Stock Options

On November 10, 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan ("2015 EIP") for its employees and non-employee directors. The plan allows for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock shares or units, and performance shares or units. The maximum number of shares authorized for issuance under the plan is 3,000. For stock options, terms and vesting periods of the options are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors when granted. The option period must expire not more than ten years from the option grant date. The options granted under this plan are exercisable beginning three years after the grant date at an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the grant date. The options terminate upon surrender of the option, ninety days after termination of employment, upon the expiration of one year following notification of a deceased optionee, or ten years after grant.

The Company previously issued options to outside directors under the 2005 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (“2005 NSOP”). No additional stock options may be issued under this plan.

A summary of option plan activity under these plans is as follows:



	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding July 1, 2018	52	$	62.65
Granted	—	—
Forfeited	—	—
Exercised	—	—
Outstanding December 31, 2018	52	$	62.65	$	3,301
Vested and Expected to Vest December 31, 2018	52	$	62.65	$	3,301
Exercisable December 31, 2018	20	$	23.65	$	2,057

At December 31, 2018, there was $83 of compensation cost yet to be recognized related to outstanding options. The weighted average remaining contractual term on options currently exercisable as of December 31, 2018 was 0.50 years.

Restricted Stock Awards

The Company issues both share awards and unit awards under the 2015 EIP, and previously issued these awards through the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan. The following table summarizes non-vested share awards as of December 31, 2018, as well as activity for the six months then ended:



Share awards	Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding July 1, 2018	23		$	81.33
Granted	—		—
Vested	(17	)	79.48
Forfeited	—		—
Outstanding December 31, 2018	6		$	86.74

At December 31, 2018, there was $83 of compensation expense that has yet to be recognized related to non-vested restricted stock share awards, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.48 years.

The following table summarizes non-vested unit awards as of December 31, 2018, as well as activity for the six months then ended:



Unit awards	Units		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding July 1, 2018	351		$	83.37
Granted	65		176.95
Vested	(117	)	79.51
Forfeited	(4	)	86.89
Outstanding December 31, 2018	295		$	105.38	$	37,305

The Company utilized a Monte Carlo pricing model customized to the specific provisions of the Company’s plan design to value unit awards subject to performance targets on the grant dates. The weighted average assumptions used in this model to estimate fair value at the measurement date and resulting values for 39 unit awards granted in fiscal 2019 are as follows:



Volatility	15.30	%
Risk free interest rate	2.89	%
Dividend yield	0.90	%
Stock Beta	0.669

The remaining 26 unit awards granted in fiscal 2019 are not subject to performance targets, and therefore the estimated fair value at measurement date is valued in the same manner as restricted stock share award grants.

At December 31, 2018, there was $17,684 of compensation expense that has yet to be recognized related to non-vested restricted stock unit awards, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.44 years.
