Stock-Based Compensation | 12 Months Ended
--- | ---
Dec. 31, 2017
Stock-Based Compensation | 13. Stock-Based Compensation As of December 31, 2017, we had awards outstanding under two Long-Term Incentive Plans, the Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”, and together with the Plan—the “Plans”). Our stockholders approved the Plan in 2013, which provides for the granting of stock options, performance share awards, restricted stock units, and other equity-based awards, to employees, directors and consultants. As of December 31, 2017, approximately six million shares of common stock remained authorized for issuance under the Plan. In addition, shares of common stock may be automatically added to the number of shares of common stock that may be issued as awards expire, are terminated, cancelled or forfeited, or are used to satisfy the required withholding taxes with respect to existing awards under the Plans. No new stock-based awards can be made under the 2011 Plan, but there are outstanding stock options under the 2011 Plan that continue to be exercisable. Upon the exercise or payment of stock-based awards, shares of common stock are issued from authorized common shares. Pre-tax stock-based compensation expense from continuing operations was as follows:
(In millions) |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Stock option awards |  | $ | 7.4 |  |  | $ | 7.2 |  |  | $ | 7.4 |
Restricted stock units |  |  | 21.6 |  |  |  | 17.2 |  |  |  | 13.4 |
Performance awards |  |  | 13.6 |  |  |  | 6.7 |  |  |  | 5.9 |
Director awards |  |  | 1.0 |  |  |  | 0.9 |  |  |  | 0.9 |
Total pre-tax expense |  |  | 43.6 |  |  |  | 32.0 |  |  |  | 27.6 |
Tax benefit |  |  | 15.2 |  |  |  | 11.4 |  |  |  | 9.9 |
Total after tax expense |  | $ | 28.4 |  |  | $ | 20.6 |  |  | $ | 17.7 |
Included in compensation costs are cash-settled restricted stock units of $0.6 million that are classified as a liability. Compensation costs that were capitalized in inventory were not material. Restricted Stock Units Restricted stock units have been granted to officers and certain employees of the Company and represent the right to receive unrestricted shares of Company common stock subject to continued employment through each vesting date. Restricted stock units granted to certain officers are also subject to attaining specific performance criteria. In addition, certain employees can elect to defer receipt of a portion of their RSU awards upon vesting. Compensation cost is recognized over the service period. We calculate the fair value of each restricted stock unit granted by using the average of the high and low share prices on the date of grant. Restricted stock units generally vest ratably over a three-year period. A summary of activity with respect to restricted stock units outstanding under the Plans for the year ended December 31, 2017 was as follows:
|  | Number of Restricted Stock Units |  |  | Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value |
Non-vested at December 31, 2016 |  |  | 723,398 |  |  | $ | 49.22 |
Granted |  |  | 408,608 |  |  |  | 58.59 |
Vested |  |  | (338,988 | ) |  |  | 48.13 |
Forfeited |  |  | (64,953 | ) |  |  | 53.56 |
Non-vested at December 31, 2017 |  |  | 728,065 |  |  | $ | 54.59 |
The remaining unrecognized pre-tax compensation cost related to restricted stock units at December 31, 2017 was approximately $18.9 million, and the weighted-average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is 1.5 years. The fair value of restricted stock units that vested during 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $20.3 million, $16.4 million and $24.9 million, respectively. Stock Option Awards Stock options were granted to officers and certain employees of the Company and represent the right to purchase shares of Company common stock subject to continued employment through each vesting date. All stock-based compensation to employees is required to be measured at fair value and expensed over the requisite service period. We recognize compensation expense on awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Stock options granted under the Plans generally vest over a three-year period and have a maturity of ten years from the grant date. The fair value of Fortune Brands options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions shown in the following table:
|  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Current expected dividend yield |  |  | 1.4% |  |  |  | 1.4% |  |  |  | 1.5% |
Expected volatility |  |  | 26.0% |  |  |  | 30.0% |  |  |  | 27.0% |
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 1.9% |  |  |  | 1.3% |  |  |  | 1.8% |
Expected term |  |  | 5.5 years |  |  |  | 5.5 years |  |  |  | 6 years |
The determination of expected volatility is based on a blended peer group volatility for companies in similar industries, at a similar stage of life and with similar market capitalization because there is not sufficient historical volatility data for Fortune Brands common stock over the period commensurate with the expected term of stock options, as well as other relevant factors. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the stock options. The expected term is the period over which our employees are expected to hold their options. In 2017 and 2016, the expected term was determined based on the historical employee exercise behavior and the contractual term of the options. In 2015, the expected term was determined based on the simplified method from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s safe harbor guidelines. The dividend yield is based on the Company’s estimated dividend over the expected term. The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted under the Plans during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $13.49, $12.70 and $11.58, respectively.

The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards at December 31, 2017 was $6.0 million, and the weighted-average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is 1.4 years.

Performance Awards Performance share awards were granted to officers and certain employees of the Company under the Plans and represent the right to earn shares of Company common stock based on the achievement of or company-wide performance conditions, including cumulative diluted earnings per share, average return on invested capital, average return on net tangible assets and EBITDA during the three-year performance period. Compensation cost is amortized into expense over the performance period, which is generally three years, and is based on the probability of meeting performance targets. The fair value of each performance share award is based on the average of the high and low stock price on the date of grant. The following table summarizes information about performance share awards as of December 31, 2017, as well as activity during the year then ended. The number of Performance share awards granted are shown below at the target award amounts:
|  | Number of Performance Share Awards |  |  | Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value |
Non-vested at December 31, 2016 |  |  | 421,600 |  |  | $ | 48.00 |
Granted |  |  | 160,196 |  |  |  | 58.02 |

Non-vested at December 31, 2017 |  |  | 428,328 |  |  | $ | 52.35 |
The remaining unrecognized pre-tax compensation cost related to performance share awards at December 31, 2017 was approximately $6.8 million, and the weighted-average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is 1.3 years. The fair value of performance share awards that vested during 2017 was $5.6 million (100,580 shares). Director Awards Stock awards are used as part of the compensation provided to outside directors under the Plan. Awards are issued annually in the second quarter. In addition, outside directors can elect to have director fees paid in stock or can elect to defer payment of stock. Compensation cost is expensed at the time of an award based on the fair value of a share at the date of the award. In 2017, 2016 and 2015, we awarded 15,311, 16,471 and 19,695 shares of Company common stock to outside directors with a weighted average fair value on the date of the award of $63.43, $57.37 and $46.21, respectively.
