Performance stock units have a market condition modifier and are valued at an estimated fair value using the Monte Carlo model. The final number of shares to be issued for performance stock units granted in the first quarter of 2018 may range from 0% to 200% of the target award based on achieving the specified performance targets over the performance period. The following weighted average assumptions were used in the Monte Carlo model for units granted in the first quarter of 2018 with a market condition modifier.
Fair value per unit | $83.58
Risk-free interest rate | 2.36%
Expected dividend yield | 1.82%
Expected volatility | 28.3%
MSA stock beta | 1.240
The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rates as of the grant date converted into an implied spot rate yield curve. Expected dividend yield is based on the most recent annualized dividend divided by the one year average closing share price. Expected volatility is based on the ten year historical volatility using daily stock prices. Expected life is based on historical stock option exercise data. A summary of performance stock unit activity for the six months ended June 30, 2018, follows:
|  | Shares |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at January 1, 2018 |  | 242,186 |  |  | $ | 55.06 |
Granted |  | 62,775 |  |  | 84.79 |

Unvested at June 30, 2018 |  | 251,286 |  |  | $ | 65.45 |
