Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATIONWe issue restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which consist of time-based and performance-based awards, to employees under stock awards plans approved by stockholders. In addition, RSUs are issued to non-employee directors under a Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement for Directors pursuant to the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. RSUs granted to employees vest according to a specified performance period and/or vesting period. Time-based RSUs generally vest over three years. Performance-based RSUs vest at the end of the specified performance period, generally three years, assuming required performance or market vesting conditions are met. Performance-based RSUs have one of two vesting conditions: (1) based on our internal financial performance metrics and (2) based on our total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to total shareholder returns of an industrial peer group. At the time of vesting, the vested shares of common stock are issued in the employee’s name. In addition, RSU awards are generally net settled (shares are withheld to cover the employee tax obligation). RSUs granted to directors are only time-based and generally vest over one year. The fair value of both time-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs pertaining to internal performance metrics is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value of performance-based RSUs pertaining to TSR is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. Inputs and assumptions used to calculate the fair value are shown in the table below. The fair value of these RSUs is expensed over the vesting period using the straight-line method or using the graded vesting method when an employee becomes eligible to retain the award at retirement.

The actual tax benefit realized for the tax deduction from RSUs was approximately $4.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, there was $61.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost relating to RSU awards which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2 years. Historically we issued stock options to our employees and non-employee directors. Beginning in 2019, we no longer issue stock options. Stock options were awarded with the exercise price equal to the market price on the date of grant and generally vest over three years and expire 10 years after grant. For stock option grants, we used historical data to estimate expected life and volatility. A summary of option activity under our stock plans during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is presented below:

The reduction in stock option expense is due to our move to RSUs as discussed above. Cash received from option exercises was approximately $53.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The actual tax benefit realized for the tax deduction from option exercises was approximately $15.0 million and $6.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, there is no remaining valuation of stock option awards to be expensed in future periods.
