Share-Based Payment Arrangement, Additional Disclosure [Abstract] |
Share-Based Payments | Share-Based Payments During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company granted the following awards under the Mastercard Incorporated 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan, amended and restated as of June 22, 2021 (the “LTIP”). The LTIP is a stockholder-approved plan that permits the grant of various types of equity awards to employees.
|  | Grants in 2025 |  | Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value
|  | (in millions) |  | (per option/unit)
Non-qualified stock options |  | 0.2 |  | $ | 193 |
Restricted stock units |  | 1.0 |  | $ | 567 |
Performance stock units |  | 0.1 |  | $ | 612 |
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the grant-date fair value of stock options and calculates the expected life and the expected volatility based on historical Mastercard information. The expected life of stock options granted in 2025 was estimated to be six years, while the expected volatility was determined to be 27.4%. These awards expire ten years from the date of grant and vest ratably over three years. The fair value of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) is determined and fixed on the grant date based on the Company’s Class A common stock price, adjusted for the exclusion of dividend equivalents. RSUs generally vest ratably over three years. The Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model to determine the grant-date fair value of performance stock units (“PSUs”) granted. PSUs vest after three years from the date of grant and are subject to a mandatory one-year deferral period, during which vested PSUs are eligible for dividend equivalents. Compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeitures over the shorter of the vesting period or the date the individual becomes eligible to retire under the LTIP. The Company uses the straight-line method of attribution over the requisite service period for expensing equity awards.
