Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

The Company's current equity compensation plan, the Insmed Incorporated 2019 Incentive Plan (as amended, the 2019 Incentive Plan), was approved by shareholders at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders in May 2019. The 2019 Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. Under the terms of the 2019 Incentive Plan, the Company is authorized to grant a variety of incentive awards based on its common stock, including stock options (both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options), RSUs, performance options/shares and other stock awards to eligible employees and non-employee directors. On May 16, 2019, upon the approval of the 2019 Incentive Plan by shareholders, 3,500,000 shares were authorized for issuance thereunder, plus any shares subject to then-outstanding awards under the Company's 2017 Incentive Plan, the 2015 Incentive Plan and the 2013 Incentive Plan that subsequently were canceled, terminated unearned, expired, were forfeited, lapsed for any reason or were settled in cash without the delivery of shares. On May 12, 2020, at the Company's 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment of the 2019 Incentive Plan providing for the issuance of an additional 4,500,000 shares under the plan. On May 12, 2021, at the Company's 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company's shareholders approved the second amendment to the 2019 Incentive Plan providing for the issuance of an additional 2,750,000 shares under the plan. On May 11, 2022, at the Company's 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company's shareholders approved the third amendment to the 2019 Incentive Plan, providing for the issuance of an additional 3,000,000 shares under the plan. As of June 30, 2022, 2,145,104 shares remain available for future issuance under the 2019 Incentive Plan. The 2019 Incentive Plan will terminate on May 16, 2029 unless it is extended or terminated earlier pursuant to its terms. In addition, from time to time, the Company makes inducement grants of stock options to new hires, which awards are made pursuant to the Nasdaq's inducement grant exception to the shareholder approval requirement for grants of equity compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted inducement stock options covering 471,790 shares of the Company's common stock to new employees.

On May 15, 2018, the 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (2018 ESPP) was approved by shareholders at the Company's 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Company has reserved the following for issuance under the 2018 ESPP: (i) 1,000,000 shares of common stock, plus (ii) commencing on January 1, 2019 and ending on December 31, 2023, an additional number of shares to be added on the first day of each calendar year equal to the lesser of (A) 1,200,000 shares of common stock, (B) 2% of the number of outstanding shares of common stock on such date and (C) an amount determined by the administrator.

Stock Options — As of June 30, 2022, there was $122.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options.

From time to time, the Company has granted performance-conditioned options to certain of its employees. Vesting of these options is subject to the Company achieving certain performance criteria established at the date of grant and the grantees

fulfilling a service condition (continued employment). As of June 30, 2022, the Company had performance-conditioned options totaling 114,780 shares outstanding which had not yet met the recognition criteria.

Restricted Stock Units — As of June 30, 2022, there was $32.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSU awards.

Performance Stock Units — In January 2022, the Company issued 271,612 PSUs. For these PSUs, there are two performance conditions, a service condition, and a market condition. The performance conditions are the issuance of a press release announcing certain top-line results from a clinical trial and the acceptance of a new drug application (NDA) by the FDA for brensocatib. The service condition is continuous employment with the Company through the later of the third anniversary of the grant date of the PSU award and the date an NDA for brensocatib is accepted by the FDA. The potential payout of the awards ranges from 0% to 250% of the target, dependent on a market condition that is based on the Company's total shareholder return compared to a defined peer group. Due to the multiple vesting conditions, uncertain timing and variable payout of these PSUs, a Monte Carlo simulation was performed to determine the fair value of the awards. Compensation cost will be recognized on the date the performance conditions become probable, with an initial recording of the cumulative expense that would have been recognized if the PSU expense had been recognized on a straight-line basis since the date of grant. The remaining unamortized fair value of the awards will then be expensed prospectively on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. Since the market condition is reflected in the grant-date fair value and is not a condition for the award to vest, it does not impact the requisite service period. The volatility, risk-free interest rate and weighted-average grant date fair value of the PSUs granted are 65.4%, 1.03% and $39.12, respectively. Any forfeitures that occur after compensation cost recognition commences will result in the cumulative reversal of expense in the period in which the forfeiture occurs. As of June 30, 2022, there was $10.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested PSU awards, which assumes a payout of 100% of the target.

The following table summarizes the aggregate stock-based compensation expense recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss related to stock options and RSUs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively (in millions):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Research and development	$	6.7	$	4.4	$	12.3	$	8.1
Selling, general and administrative	7.6		7.4		14.8		14.2
Total	$	14.3	$	11.8	$	27.1	$	22.3

There was no stock-based compensation expense recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss related to PSUs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as the performance conditions associated with the PSU awards were not probable as of June 30, 2022.
