Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Stockholders' Equity | 9. Stockholders’ Equity Restricted Stock Units We granted approximately 4 million restricted stock units (RSUs), including performance-based RSUs (PBRSUs), during the three months ended July 28, 2023, with a weighted average grant date fair value of $77.82. As the remaining number of shares available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2021 Plan) was insufficient to support the grant of all these awards, most of these awards (the Contingent Awards) are currently subject to settlement, upon vesting, in an amount of cash equal to the product of (x) the fair mar ket value of one share of the Company’s common stock on the day immediately preceding the vesting date and (y) the number of vested RSUs or earned PBRSUs. Because of this cash-settlement provision, the Contingent Awards are accounted for as liability awards and are subject to remeasurement to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. However, if stockholders approve an increase in the number of shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan sufficient to permit all then-outstanding awards under the 2021 Plan to settle in shares (consistent with the proposal to be voted on at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on September 13, 2023), any outstanding Contingent Awards will become share-settled, equity-classified, awards. In the three months ended July 28, 2023, we granted PBRSUs to certain of our executives, all of which are Contingent Awards. Each PBRSU has performance-based vesting criteria (in addition to the service-based vesting criteria) such that the PBRSUs cliff-vest at the end of a three year performance period, which began on the date specified in the grant agreements and typically ends on the last day of the third fiscal year, following the grant date. The number of shares that will be used to calculate the settlement amount for all of these PBRSUs at the end of the applicable performance and service period will range from 0% to 200% of a target number of shares originally granted. For half of the PBRSUs granted in the three months ended July 28, 2023, the number of shares used to calculate the settlement amount will depend upon our Total Stockholder Return (TSR) as compared to the TSR of a specified group of benchmark peer companies (each expressed as a growth rate percentage) calculated as of the end of the performance period. For the remaining half of the PBRSUs granted in the three months ended July 28, 2023, the number of shares used to calculate the settlement amount will depend upon the Company's billings result average over the three-year performance period as compared to a predetermined billings target. Billings for purposes of measuring the performance of these PBRSUs means the total obtained by adding net revenues as reported on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income to the amount reported as the change in deferred revenue and financed unearned services revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable measurement period, excluding the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The aggregate grant date fair value of PBRSUs effectively granted in the current year was $32 million, which is being recognized to compensation expense over the remaining performance / service periods. Stock-Based Compensation Expense Stock-based compensation expense is included in the condensed consolidated statements of income as follows (in millions):

For the three months ended July 28, 2023, $83 million of total stock-based compensation expense pertains to equity-classified awards, while the remainder pertains to the liability-classified Contingent Awards. As of July 28, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense related to equity awards was $547 million, which is expected to be recognized on a straight-line basis over a weighted-average remaining service period of 2.1 years. Total unrecognized compensation expense related to the liability-classified Contingent Awards was $307 million, which is expected to be recognized on a straight-line basis over a weighted-average remaining service period of 3.7 years.
