Share-based Compensation [Abstract] |
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION | SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION Sysco provides compensation benefits to employees under several share-based payment arrangements, including various long-term employee stock incentive plans and the 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). Stock Incentive Plans In November 2013, Sysco’s Long-term Incentive Plan (2013 Plan) was adopted and reserved up to 55,600,000 shares of Sysco common stock for share-based awards to employees, non-employee directors and key advisors. Of the 55,600,000 authorized shares, the full 55,600,000 shares may be issued as options or stock appreciation rights and up to 17,500,000 shares may be issued as restricted stock, restricted stock units or other types of stock-based awards. To date, Sysco has issued options, restricted stock units and performance share units under the 2013 Plan. Vesting requirements for awards under the 2013 Plan vary by individual grant and may include either time-based vesting or time-based vesting subject to acceleration based on performance criteria for fiscal periods of at least one year. The contractual life of all options granted under the 2013 Plan are and will be no greater than ten years. As of June 30, 2018, there were 27,297,349 remaining shares authorized and available for grant in total under the 2013 Plan, of which the full 27,297,349 shares may be issued as options or stock appreciation rights, or as a combination of up to 11,197,918 shares that may be issued as restricted stock, restricted stock units or other types of stock-based awards, with the remainder available for issuance as options or stock appreciation rights. Sysco has also granted employee options under several previous employee stock option plans for which previously granted options remain outstanding as of June 30, 2018. No new options will be issued under any of the prior plans, as future grants to employees will be made through the 2013 Plan or subsequently adopted plans. Awards under these plans are subject to time-based vesting with vesting periods that vary by individual grant. The contractual life of all options granted under these plans is seven years. Performance Share Units During fiscal 2018 and 2017, performance share units (PSUs) of 895,968 and 829,460, respectively, were granted to employees. Based on the jurisdiction in which the employee resides, some of these PSUs were granted with forfeitable dividend equivalents. The fair value of each PSU award granted with a dividend equivalent is based on the company’s stock price as of the date of grant. For PSUs granted without dividend equivalents, the fair value was reduced by the present value of expected dividends during the vesting period. The weighted average grant-date fair value per performance share unit granted during fiscal 2018 and 2017 was $51.11 and $52.17, respectively. The PSUs granted will vest and convert into shares of Sysco common stock at the end of the performance periods, which conclude at the end of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019, respectively, based on financial performance targets consisting of Sysco’s earnings per share, compound annual growth rate and adjusted return on invested capital. Stock Options Sysco’s option awards are subject to graded vesting over a requisite service period with compensation cost recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period over the duration of the award. In addition, certain of Sysco’s options provide that the options continue to vest as if the optionee continued as an employee or director if the optionee meets certain age and years of service thresholds upon retirement. In these cases, Sysco will recognize compensation cost for such awards over the period from the grant date to the date the employee or director first becomes eligible to retire with the options continuing to vest after retirement. The fair value of each option award is estimated as of the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected dividend yield is estimated based on the historical pattern of dividends and the average stock price for the year preceding the option grant. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of Sysco’s stock, implied volatilities from traded options on Sysco’s stock and other factors. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Sysco utilizes historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination behavior within the valuation model; separate groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior are considered separately in determining the expected life of awards for valuation purposes. The weighted average assumptions discussed above are noted in the table below for relevant periods as follows:
| 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2016
Dividend yield | 2.6 | % |  | 2.8 | % |  | 3.1 | %
Expected volatility | 17.5 | % |  | 16.9 | % |  | 20.4 | %
Risk-free interest rate | 2.0 | % |  | 1.4 | % |  | 2.0 | %
Expected Life | 7.0 years |  |  | 7.2 years |  |  | 7.2 years |
The following summary presents information regarding outstanding options as of June 30, 2018 and changes during the fiscal year then ended with regard to options under all stock incentive plans:

The total number of employee options granted was 4,042,415, 4,990,396 and 4,367,764 in fiscal years 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. During fiscal 2018, 955,344 and 3,087,071 options were granted to 10 executive officers and approximately 181 other key employees, respectively. During fiscal 2017, 1,529,997 and 3,460,399 options were granted to 9 executive officers and approximately 187 other key employees, respectively. During fiscal 2016, 1,495,351 and 2,872,413 options were granted to 8 executive officers and 169 other key employees, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted in fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $7.08, $6.05 and $5.99, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $17.7 million, $22.1 million and $36.1 million, respectively. Restricted Stock Units During fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016, restricted stock units of 660,923, 631,281 and 1,257,889 were granted to employees, respectively, the majority of which will vest ratably over a three-year period. Some of these restricted stock units were granted with dividend equivalents. The fair value of each restricted stock unit award granted with a dividend equivalent is based on the company’s stock price as of the date of grant. For restricted stock unit awards granted without dividend equivalents, the fair value was reduced by the present value of expected dividends as of the date of grant date during the vesting period. The weighted average grant date fair value per share of restricted stock units granted during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $55.81, $50.04 and $42.78, respectively. The total fair value of restricted stock units vested during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $40.4 million, $46.0 million and $43.4 million, respectively.

NEDs may elect to receive these awards in restricted stock shares that will vest at the end of the award stated vesting period or as deferred units that convert into shares of Sysco common stock on a date subsequent to the award stated vesting date selected by the NED. The fair value of the restricted awards is based on the company’s stock price as of the date of grant. The weighted average grant date fair value of the shares granted during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $54.10, $53.49 and $40.59, respectively. The total fair value of restricted stock shares vested and deferred units distributed during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $2.9 million, $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Restricted stock shares are valued on their vesting date. Vested deferred units are valued on their subsequent conversion and distribution date. NEDs may elect to receive up to 100% of their annual directors’ fees in Sysco common stock on either an annual or deferred basis. Sysco provides a matching grant of 50% of the number of shares received for the stock election subject to certain limitations. As a result of such elections, a total of 21,478, 22,094 and 25,185 shares with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $54.69, $51.46 and $39.31 per share were issued in fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, in the form of fully vested common stock or deferred units. The total fair value of common stock issued as a result of election shares and deferred units distributed during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $1.2 million, $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan The Sysco ESPP permits employees to invest in Sysco common stock by means of periodic payroll deductions at a discount of 15% from the closing price on the last business day of each calendar quarter. The total number of shares which may be sold pursuant to the ESPP may not exceed 79,000,000 shares, of which 7,225,186 remained available as of June 30, 2018. During fiscal 2018, 1,078,597 shares of Sysco common stock were purchased by the participants, as compared to 1,103,995 shares purchased in fiscal 2017 and 1,275,765 shares purchased in fiscal 2016. The weighted average fair value of employee stock purchase rights issued pursuant to the ESPP was $8.38, $7.73 and $6.04 per share during fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The fair value of the stock purchase rights was calculated as the difference between the stock price at date of issuance and the employee purchase price. All Share-Based Payment Arrangements The total share-based compensation cost included in operating expenses in the consolidated results of operations was $93.8 million, $83.9 million and $79.5 million for fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
