Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
EQUITY COMPENSATION | 11. EQUITY COMPENSATION Equity Incentive Plan Equity-based compensation is granted under the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”). The total number of shares available to be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan resets based on a formula defined in the Equity Incentive Plan and may increase on January 1 of each year. On January 1, 2024, the total number of shares available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan reset to 69,122,318 shares and as of June 30, 2024, 63,097,171 shares remained available for issuance. Generally, unvested restricted units are forfeited upon termination of employment in accordance with the Equity Incentive Plan. The Company recognizes forfeitures as a reversal of previously recognized compensation expense in the period the forfeiture occurs. Equity-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, recorded by the Company for restricted units is presented in the following table:
| Three months ended June 30, |  | Six months ended June 30,
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  |
Restricted units | $ | 88,232 |  |  | $ | 62,282 |  |  | $ | 180,654 |  |  | $ | 131,533 |  |  |
Restricted Units Each restricted unit represents an unfunded, unsecured right of the holder to receive a share of the Company’s Class A common stock on a specific date. The restricted units generally vest and are settled in shares of Class A common stock at a rate of either: (i) one-third per year, beginning on the third anniversary of the grant date; (ii) one-quarter per year, beginning on the second anniversary of the grant date or the holder’s employment commencement date; or (iii) one-third per year, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, in each case generally subject to the holder’s continued employment as of the applicable vesting date (subject to accelerated vesting upon certain qualifying terminations of employment or retirement eligibility provisions). Compensation expense associated with restricted units is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Restricted units are delivered net of the holder’s payroll related taxes upon vesting. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, 3.8 million restricted units vested and 2.1 million shares of Class A common stock were delivered to the holders. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, 3.4 million restricted units vested and 1.9 million shares of Class A common stock were delivered to the holders. The holders of restricted units, other than awards that have not yet been issued as described in the subsequent sections, generally have the right to receive as current compensation an amount in cash equal to: (i) the amount of any dividend paid with respect to a share of Class A common stock multiplied by; and (ii) the number of restricted units held at the time such dividends are declared (“Dividend Equivalent”). When units are forfeited, the cumulative amount of Dividend Equivalents previously paid is reclassified to compensation and benefits expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes the Company’s dividends declared and Dividend Equivalents paid during the six months ended June 30, 2024:
Record Date |  | Dividends Per Share |  | Dividend Equivalents Paid
March 15, 2024 |  | $ | 0.93 |  |  | $ | 16,294 |
June 16, 2024 |  | 0.93 |  |  | 16,008 |
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company approved the future grant of restricted units to certain senior executives in each of 2025 and 2026, subject to the holder’s continued employment and acceleration in certain instances. These restricted awards vest before July 1, 2029, at a rate of either: (i) one-quarter per year, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date; or (ii) one-third per year, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. Given that these future restricted units have been communicated to the recipient, the Company accounts for these awards as if they have been granted and recognizes the compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period. The restricted units that have been approved and communicated but not yet granted are not eligible to receive a Dividend Equivalent until the grant date. The following table presents unvested restricted units’ activity:
| Restricted Units |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Unit |  |
Balance as of December 31, 2023 | 17,359,829 |  |  | $ | 59.20 |  |  |
Granted | 4,647,748 |  |  | 121.38 |  |  |
Vested | (3,807,926) |  |  | 52.08 |  |  |
Forfeited | (349,601) |  |  | 85.23 |  |  |
Balance as of June 30, 2024 | 17,850,050 |  |  | $ | 76.41 |  |  |
The total compensation expense expected to be recognized in all future periods associated with the restricted units is approximately $1,005.5 million as of June 30, 2024 and is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average period of 3.7 years. Options Upon exercise, each option entitles the holders to purchase from the Company one share of Class A common stock at the stated exercise price. A summary of options activity during the six months ended June 30, 2024 is presented below:
| Options |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted Average Remaining Life (in years) |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Balance as of December 31, 2023 | 79,524 |  |  | $ | 19.00 |  |  | 0.3 |  | $ | 7,946 |
Exercised | (79,524) |  |  | 19.00 |  |  | — |  |  | — |

Exercisable as of June 30, 2024 | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | 0.0 |  | $ | — |
Net cash proceeds from exercises of options were $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company realized tax benefits of approximately $1.4 million from the exercise of the remaining options during the first quarter of 2024.
