Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Share-Based CompensationThe Company’s Board of Directors adopted the II-VI Incorporated 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was approved by the Company’s shareholders. The Plan provides for the grant of performance-based cash incentive awards, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted share awards, restricted share units, deferred share awards, performance share awards and performance share units to employees, officers and directors of the Company. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan is limited to 3,550,000 shares of Common Stock, not including any remaining shares forfeited under the predecessor plans that may be rolled into the Plan. The Company records share-based compensation expense for these awards in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the

recognition of grant-date fair value of share-based compensation in net earnings (loss) and over the requisite service period of the individual grantees, which generally equals the vesting period. The Company accounts for cash-based stock appreciation rights, cash-based restricted share unit awards and cash-based performance share unit awards as liability awards, in accordance with applicable accounting standards.

Upon consummation of the acquisition of Finisar, the Company assumed approximately 6.6 million restricted stock units previously granted by Finisar under the Amended and Restated Finisar Corporation 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (each an “Assumed RSU”), and the Company also assumed the unused capacity under the Finisar 2005 Plan.

Share-based compensation expense for the periods indicated was as follows ($000):
