Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION	SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION Restricted Stock and Performance Awards Our 2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) is an equity-based compensation plan that allows us to grant a variety of types of awards, including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance share units (“PSUs”), phantom stock awards, long-term incentive awards with performance conditions (“Performance Share Awards”) and cash awards. As of July 31, 2016, and for all periods presented, our share-based awards under this plan have consisted of restricted stock grants, PSUs and stock option grants, none of which can be settled through cash payments, and Performance Share Awards. Both our stock options and restricted stock awards are subject only to vesting requirements based on continued employment at the end of a specified time period and typically vest in annual increments over one to four years or earlier upon death, disability or a change of control. However, our annual restricted stock awards issued prior to December 15, 2013 also vest upon attainment of age 65 and, only in the case of certain special one-time restricted stock awards, a portion vest on termination without cause or for good reason, as defined by the agreements governing such awards. Restricted stock awards issued after December 15, 2013 do not vest upon attainment of age 65, as provided by the agreements governing such awards. The vesting of our Performance Share Awards is described below. In December 2015, we granted long-term incentive awards, with a three-year performance period, to our senior executives (“2015 Executive Awards”). 40% of the value of the long-term incentive awards consists of time-based restricted stock units and 60% of the value of the award consists of PSUs. The restricted stock units are time-vesting based on continued employment, with one-third of the restricted stock units vesting on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The PSUs vest based on the achievement of performance goals and continued employment at the end of the three-year performance period. The PSU performance goals are based on three metrics: (1) cumulative free cash flow (weighted 40%); (2) cumulative earnings per share (weighted 40%); and (3) total shareholder return (weighted 20%), in each case during the performance period. The number of shares that may be received upon the vesting of the PSUs will depend upon the satisfaction of the performance goals, up to a maximum of 200% of the target number of the PSUs. The PSUs vest pro rata if an executive’s employment terminates prior to the end of the performance period due to death, disability, or termination by NCI without cause or by the executive for good reason. If an executive’s employment terminates for any other reason prior to the end of the performance period, all outstanding unvested PSUs, whether earned or unearned, will be forfeited and cancelled. If a change in control of NCI occurs prior to the end of the performance period, the PSU payout will be calculated and paid assuming that the maximum benefit had been achieved. If an executive’s employment terminates due to death or disability while any of the restricted stock units are unvested, then all of the executive’s unvested restricted stock units will become vested. If an executive’s employment is terminated for any other reason, the executive’s unvested restricted stock units will be forfeited. If a change in control of NCI occurs prior to the end of the performance period, the restricted stock units fully vest. The fair value of the 2015 Executive Awards is based on the Company’s stock price as of the grant date. A portion of the compensation cost of the 2015 Executive Awards is based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions associated with the respective shares, as determined by management. During the nine months ended July 31, 2016 and August 2, 2015, we granted PSUs with a fair value of approximately $5.2 million and $3.7 million, respectively. The fair value of restricted stock units classified as equity awards is based on the Company’s stock price as of the date of grant. During the nine months ended July 31, 2016 and August 2, 2015, we granted time-based restricted stock units with a fair value of $4.2 million, representing 328,780 shares, and $6.6 million, representing 389,323 shares, respectively. Also, in December 2015, we granted Performance Cash and Share Awards to certain key employees that will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in stock (“2015 Key Employee Awards”). The amount of cash and number of shares that may be received upon the vesting of these awards will be based on the achievement of free cash flow and earnings per share targets over a three-year performance period. The 2015 Key Employee Awards vest three years from the grant date and will be earned based on the performance against the pre-established targets for the requisite service period. A key employee’s awards also vest in full upon death, disability or a change of control, and a pro-rated portion of the key employee’s awards may vest on termination without cause or after reaching normal retirement age prior to the vesting date, as defined by the agreements governing such awards. The fair value of the 2015 Key Employee Awards is based on the Company’s stock price as of the grant date. Compensation cost is recorded based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions associated with the shares, as determined by management. During the nine months ended July 31, 2016 and August 2, 2015, we granted awards to key employees with an equity fair value of $2.4 million and $1.5 million and a cash value of $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively. During the nine month periods ended July 31, 2016 and August 2, 2015, we also granted 28,535 and 10,543 stock options, respectively. The grant date fair value of options granted during the nine month periods ended July 31, 2016 and August 2, 2015 was $5.38 and $7.91, respectively. The Company received cash proceeds of $10.7 million and $12.1 million from exercises of 1,202,885 and 1,358,219 stock options during the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2016, respectively. During the nine month periods ended July 31, 2016 and August 2, 2015, we recorded share-based compensation expense for all awards of $7.7 million and $7.7 million, respectively. Deferred Compensation On February 26, 2016, the Company amended its Deferred Compensation Plan (“Plan”), with an effective date of January 31, 2016, to require that amounts deferred into the Company Stock Fund remain invested in the Company Stock Fund until distribution. In accordance with the terms of the Plan, the deferred compensation obligation related to the Company’s stock may only be settled by the delivery of a fixed number of the Company’s common shares held on the participant’s behalf. As a result, we have a deferred compensation obligation of $1.4 million related to the Company Stock Fund that is recorded within equity in additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2016. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the deferred compensation obligation classified within equity are not recognized. Additionally, the Company currently holds 144,857 shares in treasury shares, relating to deferred, vested 2012 PSU awards, until participants are eligible to receive benefits under the terms of the plan.
