Share-based Compensation [Abstract]  
Share-Based Compensation
2.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has adopted equity incentive plans that provide for the grant to employees of stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted shares and restricted stock units, of Adept common stock. In addition, certain of these plans permit the grant of non-statutory stock-based awards to paid consultants and outside directors. To date, Adept has generally granted options under its existing stock plans and, commencing in fiscal 2009, has increasingly granted shares of restricted stock to executive and some non-executive employees as incentive compensation in lieu of stock options. Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. Those option awards generally have ten-year contractual terms. The Company also has an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) that allows employees to purchase a limited number of shares of its common stock at a discount of 15% of the market value at certain plan-defined dates that are established at six-month intervals.
Adept has an employee stock purchase plan and two equity compensation plans in effect and used by Adept at June 30, 2012, including the 2003 Stock Option Plan and 2005 Equity Incentive Plan as described in Note 8 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2012, the outstanding options and available shares for issuance under these plans are:

Options are also outstanding pursuant to four equity compensation plans which have expired or been terminated. These include the 1993 Stock Option Plan, the 1995 Director Stock Option Plan, the 2001 Stock Option Plan, and the 2004 Director Option Plan, which have, respectively, 23,903 , 1,200 , 88,000 , and 107,000 shares subject to outstanding options.
Under all of these plans, for employee grants, vesting of options is generally monthly in equal installments over a four year period. Performance restricted stock or restricted stock unit grants made to Adept executive officers and other senior management employees for performance under performance programs pursuant to the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan are subject to vesting quarterly over two years following the end of the relevant fiscal year of performance. Under the director option plan, prior to March 2010, initial director grants vest one-fourth on the first anniversary of the grant, then monthly in equal installments thereafter for three years. Prior to March 2010, annual non-employee director grants vest monthly in equal installments over a four year period. In March 2010, Adept’s Board of Directors revised the terms of future director option grants, which provided for the vesting of annual option grants of 6,000 shares to non-employee directors to vest in full on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders following the meeting at which the director is elected, and revised the vesting of the initial option grant of 10,000 shares to non-employee directors who have served for at least six months to vest in the amount of 50% of the grant on the first annual meeting of stockholders following the appointment or election of the director and the remaining 50% to vest at the second annual meeting of stockholders of the Company following the appointment or election of the director. In March 2010, the Board of Directors authorized a one-time option grant with 100% vesting to occur at the 2010 annual meeting of stockholders to reflect the increase in equity compensation for the 2010 year of service on the Board of Directors. The Company recognizes the fair value of stock compensation as an expense in the calculation of net income (loss). Stock compensation expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period of the individual equity instruments. All stock compensation recorded has been accounted for as an equity instrument.
The Company recorded $1.3 million and $3.1 million of stock-based compensation expense on its consolidated statements of operations for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for its stock plans, ESPP, and MobileRobots and InMoTx acquisition-related equity grants for which continued employment is a condition for release. Stock compensation expense for fiscal 2012 and 2011 includes $95,000 and $498,000, respectively, of accelerated stock compensation expense related to employee terminations that were part of the Company’s restructuring activities, and has been classified as restructuring expense. The Company did not record an income-tax benefit for the stock compensation expense because of the extent of its net operating loss carry-forwards. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the fair value of the stock-based compensation. The weighted average grant-date fair values of the options granted under the equity incentive plans for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $2.52 and $3.49, respectively, for employees and non-employee directors. The weighted average grant-date fair value of the shares subject to purchase under the ESPP for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $1.46 and $1.51, respectively, using the following weighted average assumptions:

The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends, is restricted from paying cash dividends by its credit facility, and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of Adept’s common stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options or ESPP shares. The risk-free interest rate is based on observed and expected time to post-vesting exercise and forfeitures of options or ESPP shares by Adept’s employees. The expected life in years is based on the historic time to post-vesting exercise and forfeitures of the options or ESPP shares. The purchase period for the ESPP commencing September 1, 2009 was extended two months in order to adjust the purchase periods in 2010 to begin on May 1 and November 1 going forward.
For the 2012 and 2011 fiscal years, stock-based compensation expense was based on the Company’s historical experience of option cancellations prior to vesting. The Company has assumed an annualized forfeiture rate of 5% for each period for its options. The Company records additional expense if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than estimated, and records a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture rate is higher than estimated
