Stock-Based Compensation |
Stock-Based Compensation | Note 5—Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, which generally equals the stated vesting period, unless the stated vesting period exceeds the date upon which an employee reaches retirement eligibility. Pre-tax stock-based compensation expense was $7.4 million and $7.7 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Executive Incentive Program The Company maintains an Executive Incentive Program (the “Program”) for executives and certain other employees of the Company and its operating segments and subsidiaries. The Program was approved by shareholders on May 2, 2012. The Program allows for awards to eligible employees of stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and units or other awards based on Company common stock. At March 31, 2015, 2,240,935 shares were available for grant under this plan, of which 302,285 shares were available for the issuance of stock awards. Nonemployee Director Equity Plan The Company also maintains the Nonemployee Director Equity Plan (the “Plan”) for members of its Board of Directors, with the same terms and conditions as the Program. At March 31, 2015, 245,361 stock options and 15,361 restricted shares were available for grant under this plan. Members of the Board of Directors that receive stock-based compensation are treated as employees for accounting purposes. Grants For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company awarded 266,020 stock options, 57,180 restricted stock awards, 57,180 performance share awards and 10,925 restricted stock units with an aggregate grant-date fair value of approximately $18.2 million to be expensed over the requisite service period for each award. Stock Option Awards Options issued under these plans generally vest one-third on the first anniversary of grant, one-third on the second anniversary of grant and the remaining one-third on the third anniversary of grant. All options have a maximum term life of 10 years. Shares issued to cover options under the Program and the Plan may be issued from shares held in treasury, from new issuances of shares, or a combination of the two. Pre-tax share-based compensation expense related to stock options was $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option pricing model to determine the fair value of its stock option awards. The BSM relies on certain assumptions to estimate an option’s fair value. The weighted average assumptions used in the determination of fair value for stock option awards in 2015 and 2014 were as follows:
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |
Expected dividend yield |  | 1.1 | % | 1.2 | %
Expected life in years |  | 5.71 |  | 5.74 |
Expected volatility |  | 27.3 | % | 29.3 | %
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.4 | % | 1.7 | %
Weighted-average fair value |  | $ | 21.19 |  | $ | 19.15 |
The expected life of options is based on the assumption that all adjusted outstanding options will be exercised at the midpoint of the valuation date (if vested) or the vesting dates (if unvested) and the options’ expiration date. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility as well as implied volatility of the Company’s options. The risk free interest rate is based on rates of U.S. Treasury issues with a remaining life equal to the expected life of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the projected annual dividend payment per share, divided by the stock price at the date of grant. Restricted Stock Awards Restricted stock awarded under the Program is generally released to the recipient after a period of three years. The $90.54 grant date fair value of the 2015 restricted stock awards, which are released to the recipient after a period of three years, is based on the closing market price of the stock on the date of grant. Performance Share Awards The performance shares awarded vest based on the employee rendering three years of service to the Company, and the attainment of a market condition over the performance period, which is based on the Company’s relative total shareholder return versus the S&P Midcap 400 Index® over a pre-determined time period as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The grant date fair value of the 2015 performance shares of $112.39 was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation approach based on a three-year measurement period. Such approach entails the use of assumptions regarding the future performance of the Company’s stock and those of the S&P Midcap 400 Index®. Those assumptions include expected volatility, risk-free interest rates, correlation coefficients and dividend reinvestment. Dividends accrue on the performance shares during the performance period and are to be paid in cash based upon the number of shares ultimately earned. The Company expenses the compensation cost associated with the performance awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of three years. Restricted Stock Units The restricted stock units awarded to eligible directors are fully vested and will be issued in shares of Company common stock after the director ceases to serve as a member of the Board, or if earlier, upon a change in control of the Company. The $90.54 grant date fair value of the 2015 restricted stock units is based on the closing market price of the stock on February 4, 2015, the date of the grant. Deferred Compensation - Equity Certain employees are eligible to participate in the Company’s Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). Participants may elect to defer all or part of their stock-based compensation. Participants have elected to defer 237,930 shares of Company common stock as of March 31, 2015 and 228,047 shares as of December 31, 2014.
