We recognized compensation expense for stock options of $2.0 million and $1.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $6.2 million and $15.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $14.7 million and $8.7 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, we had $8.8 million o f unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options that we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of stock options granted, including replacement awards granted in connection with the EVO acquisition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $53.28 and $46.17, respectively. Fair value was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
| Nine Months Ended
| September 30, 2024 |  | September 30, 2023
Risk-free interest rate | 4.13% |  | 3.84%
Expected volatility | 45% |  | 45%
Dividend yield | 0.90% |  | 0.81%
Expected term (years) | 5 |  | 5
The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield of a zero coupon U.S. Treasury security with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option from the date of the grant. Our assumption on expected volatility was based on our historical volatility. The dividend yield assumption was determined using our average stock price over the preceding year and the annualized amount of our most current quarterly dividend per share. We based our assumptions on the expected term of the options on our analysis of the historical exercise patterns of the options and our assumption on the future exercise pattern of options.
