Stockholders' Equity | Note 12. Stockholders' Equity Stock-Based Compensation Our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) authorizes us to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock units and other stock-based awards to employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants and advisors. There were up to 4,800,000 shares of our common stock initially reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan provides that the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2016 Plan will automatically increase annually on January 1 of each calendar year, commencing in 2017 and ending on and including January 1, 2026, by an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 5% of the number of common shares of stock outstanding as of December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, or (b) 2,500,000 shares; provided, however, that our Board of Directors may determine that any annual increase be a lesser number. In addition, all awards granted under our 2007 Omnibus Stock Plan and our 2003 Stock Option Plan that were outstanding when the 2016 Plan became effective and that are forfeited, expired, cancelled, settled for cash or otherwise not issued, will become available for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Pursuant to the automatic increase feature of the 2016 Plan, 972,591 and 952,697 shares were added as available for issuance thereunder on January 1, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, 6,366,806 shares were available for future grant pursuant to the 2016 Plan. Upon adoption and approval of the 2016 Plan, all of our previous equity incentive compensation plans were terminated. However, existing awards under those plans continue to vest in accordance with the original vesting schedules and will expire at the end of their original terms. In the second fiscal quarter of 2020, our Board of Directors appointed a new President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), effective June 8, 2020. In conjunction with the acceptance of the written offer, our CEO received both restricted stock units and stock option awards under our 2016 Plan during the third fiscal quarter of 2020 and the stock options have a seven year term. A portion of the awards vested on June 30, 2021, with the remaining portion of the awards vesting over a period of three years from the date of grant. Further, the stock options were valued at the date of grant using the Monte Carlo Simulation model due to a market condition that required that our stock price exceed $40.15 for 20 consecutive trading days during the term of the option in order to vest. This condition was satisfied in the first quarter of 2021 We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $2.6 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $7.7 million and $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. This expense was allocated as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, (In thousands) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Cost of revenue $ 171 $ 171 $ 455 $ 358 Sales and marketing expenses 1,081 1,436 2,979 3,915 Research and development expenses 68 87 224 269 Reimbursement, general and administrative expenses 1,268 1,470 4,045 3,746 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 2,588 $ 3,164 $ 7,703 $ 8,288 Stock Options Stock options issued to participants other than non-employees typically vest over three or four years and typically have a contractual term of seven or ten years . Stock-based compensation expense included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for stock options was $1.0 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $3.3 million and $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. At September 30, 2021, there was approximately $6.4 million of total unrecognized pre-tax stock option expense under our equity compensation plans, which is expected to be recognized on a straight-line basis over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years. Our stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was as follows: Weighted- Weighted- Average Average Aggregate Options Exercise Price Remaining Intrinsic (In thousands except options and per share data) Outstanding Per Share (1) Contractual Life Value (2) Balance at December 31, 2020 1,039,709 $ 36.43 5.6 years $ 13,381 Granted 174,755 $ 50.88 Exercised (138,586) $ 25.85 $ 3,863 Forfeited (68,797) $ 48.64 Cancelled/Expired (30,005) $ 61.13 Balance at September 30, 2021 977,076 $ 38.90 5.2 years $ 10,208 Options exercisable at September 30, 2021 508,184 $ 30.45 4.4 years $ 9,229 (1) The exercise price of each option granted during the period shown was equal to the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. (2) The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised represents the difference between the exercise price of the option and the closing stock price of our common stock on the date of exercise. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding represents the difference between the exercise price of the option and the closing stock price of our common stock on the last trading day of the period. Options exercisable of 461,138 as of September 30, 2020, had a weighted-average exercise price of $23.35 per share. Time-Based Restricted Stock Units We have granted time-based restricted stock units to certain participants under the 2016 Plan that are stock-settled with common shares. Time-based restricted stock units granted under the 2016 Plan vest over one to three years . Stock-based compensation expense included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for time-based restricted stock units was $1.2 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $3.7 million and $4.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. At September 30, 2021, there was approximately $6.6 million of total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to outstanding time-based restricted stock units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years. Our time-based restricted stock unit activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was as follows: Weighted- Average Grant Aggregate Units Date Fair Value Intrinsic (In thousands except unit and per unit data) Outstanding Per Unit Value (1) Balance at December 31, 2020 211,469 $ 48.29 $ 9,503 Granted 91,001 $ 51.56 Vested (94,517) $ 47.99 Cancelled (24,161) $ 51.29 Balance at September 30, 2021 183,792 $ 49.66 $ 8,170 Deferred and unissued at September 30, 2021 (2) 6,469 $ 38.94 $ 288 (1) The aggregate intrinsic value of restricted stock units outstanding was based on our closing stock price on the last trading day of the period. (2) For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there were no restricted stock units granted to non-employee directors in lieu of their quarterly cash retainer payments. As of September 30, 2021, there were 6,469 outstanding restricted stock units that had been previously granted to non-employee directors in lieu of their quarterly cash retainer payments. Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units We have granted performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to certain participants under the 2016 Plan. These PSUs have both performance-based and time-based vesting features. The PSUs granted in 2018 were earned to the extent performance goals based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA were achieved in 2019. The PSUs granted in 2019 would have been earned to the extent performance goals based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA were achieved in 2020, but none were so earned. The PSUs granted in 2020 will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA are achieved in 2021. The PSUs granted in 2021 will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA are achieved in 2022. The number of PSUs earned will depend on the level at which the performance targets are achieved and can range from 50% of target if the minimum performance threshold is achieved and up to 150% of target if maximum performance is achieved. One-third of the earned PSUs will vest on the date the Compensation and Organization Committee certifies the number of PSUs earned, and the remaining two-thirds of the earned PSUs will vest on the first anniversary of that certification date. All earned and vested PSUs will be settled in shares of common stock. Stock-based compensation expense recognized for PSUs was an expense of $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and less than $0.1 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflected a $0.5 million benefit due to a change in the estimated payout associated with PSUs granted in 2020 being below the minimum performance target threshold level, as defined, partially offset by an expense of $0.5 million related to the PSUs granted in 2018 and 2021. At September 30, 2021, there was approximately $1.5 million of total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to outstanding PSUs that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years. Our performance-based restricted stock unit activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was as follows: Performance- Weighted- Based Average Grant Aggregate Units Date Fair Value Intrinsic (In thousands except unit and per unit data) Outstanding Per Unit Value (1) Balance at December 31, 2020 79,303 $ 47.83 $ 3,564 Granted 39,419 $ 51.82 Vested (34,159) $ 33.98 Cancelled (23,936) $ 65.43 Balance at September 30, 2021 60,627 $ 51.28 $ 2,695 (1) The aggregate intrinsic value of performance-based restricted stock units outstanding was based on our closing stock price on the last trading day of the period. Employee Stock Purchase Plan Our employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”), which was approved by our Board of Directors on April 27, 2016, and by our stockholders on June 20, 2016, allows participating employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. The ESPP is available to all of our employees and employees of participating subsidiaries. Participating employees may purchase common stock, on a voluntary after-tax basis, at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the closing market price per share of our common stock on the first or last trading day of each stock purchase period. The ESPP provides for six-month purchase periods, beginning on May 16 and November 16 of each calendar year. A total of 1,600,000 shares of common stock was initially reserved for issuance under the ESPP. This share reserve will automatically be supplemented each January 1, commencing in 2017 and ending on and including January 1, 2026, by an amount equal to the least of (a) 1% of the shares of our common stock outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, (b) 500,000 shares or (c) such lesser amount as our Board of Directors may determine. Pursuant to the automatic increase feature of the ESPP, 194,518 and 190,539 shares were added as available for issuance thereunder on January 1, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, 1,740,328 shares were available for future issuance under the ESPP. We recognized stock-based compensation expense associated with the ESPP of $ 0.2 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $0.6 million and $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. |
