The amount of unrecognized compensation cost as of June 30, 2025, and the expected weighted-average period over which the cost will be recognized is as follows:


	As of June 30, 2025
(in thousands, except years)	Unrecognized Compensation Cost		Expected Weighted- Average Period of Recognition (in years)
RSA expense	$	4,449	2.12

PSU expense	843		0.95
Stock option expense	254		1.05
Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense	$	5,546	1.89

RSAs are typically granted with vesting terms of three years. The fair value of RSAs is determined based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the authorization date of the grant multiplied by the number of shares subject to the stock award. Compensation expense for RSAs is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the entire vesting period.


	Restricted Stock	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value

Non-vested at January 1, 2025	732,555	$	4.99
Granted	556,812	$	4.81
Vested	(218,504)	$	4.10
Forfeited	(21,190)	$	4.75
Non-vested at June 30, 2025	1,049,673	$	5.08

Compensation expense for PSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period, which is generally three years, based on the estimated fair value at the date of grant. The estimated fair value at the date of grant is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model for those PSUs with market-based performance conditions. A summary of PSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is presented below:


	Units	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)
PSUs outstanding at January 1, 2025	877,045	$	2.94
Granted	141,064	$	7.11
Vested / Settled (1)	(28,819)	$	9.59
Forfeited / Canceled	(5,643)	$	9.59
PSUs outstanding at June 30, 2025	983,647	$	3.30	$	5,282	0.91

(1) The number of units shown in the table above are based on target performance. The final number of shares of common stock issued may vary depending on the achievement of market or performance conditions established within the awards, which could result in the actual number of shares issued ranging from zero to a maximum of two times the number of units shown in the above table. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, 21,824 shares of common stock were issued upon vesting of PSUs, net of shares withheld for settlement of payroll tax withholding obligations.

Stock options vest over three years and have a contractual limit of ten years from the date of grant to exercise. The fair value of stock options granted is determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the related expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the entire vesting period. The determination of the grant date fair value of stock options issued is affected by a number of variables, including the fair value of the Company’s common stock, the expected common stock price volatility over the expected term of the stock option, the expected term of the stock option, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of the Company’s common stock.

Risk-free interest rate - The risk-free interest rate for stock options granted was determined by using a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury rate for the periods that coincided with the expected term of the options.

Dividend yield - An expected dividend yield of zero was included in the calculations, as the Company does not currently pay nor does it anticipate paying dividends on its common stock as of the grant date of the stock options.

Expected term - The Company’s expected term of stock options was calculated using a simplified method whereby the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term is utilized to compute the expected term, as the Company does not have sufficient historical data for options with similar vesting and contractual terms.
