Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation The Company recognizes the fair value of share-based compensation awards granted to employees in cost of processing and services, cost of product, and selling, general and administrative expense in its consolidated statements of income. The Company’s share-based compensation awards are typically granted in the first quarter of the year; however, grants may also occur throughout the year, and primarily consist of the following: •Restricted Stock Units and Awards – The Company grants restricted stock units and awards to employees and non-employee directors. Time-based restricted stock units and award grants generally vest over a three- or four-year period. The Company recognizes compensation expense for restricted stock units and awards based on the market price of its common stock on the grant date over the period during which the units and awards vest. •Performance Share Units – The Company grants performance share units to employees. The number of shares issued at the end of the performance period is determined by the level of achievement of predefined performance goals, including earnings, revenue growth, integration attainment, and shareholder return. The Company recognizes compensation expense on performance share units ratably over the requisite performance period of the award, generally two to five years, to the extent management views the performance goals as probable of attainment. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of the shareholder return component over the requisite service period of the award. •Stock Options – The Company may grant stock options to employees and non-employee directors at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the dates of grant. Stock option grants generally vest over a three- or four-year period. All stock options expire ten years from the date of the award. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of the stock options over the requisite service period of the stock option award. •Employee Stock Purchase Plan – The Company maintains an employee stock purchase plan that allows eligible employees to purchase a limited number of shares of common stock each quarter through payroll deductions at a discount of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last business day of each calendar quarter. The employee discount of 5% under the employee stock purchase plan is considered non-compensatory and therefore does not give rise to recognizable compensation cost. The Company recognized $367 million, $342 million and $323 million of share-based compensation expense during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At December 31, 2024, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost for restricted stock units and awards and performance share units, net of estimated forfeitures, of $341 million is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, stock options to purchase 2.3 million, 2.4 million and 3.7 million shares, respectively, were exercised.
