Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Share-Based Payments | Share-Based Payments Mattel has various stock compensation plans, which are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements–Share-Based Payments” in its 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the Mattel, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Equity and Long-Term Compensation Plan, Mattel has the ability to grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance awards, dividend equivalent rights, and shares of common stock to officers, employees, and other persons providing services to Mattel. Stock options are granted with exercise prices at the fair market value of Mattel’s common stock on the applicable grant date and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Both stock options and time-vesting RSUs generally provide for vesting over a period of three years from the date of grant. In March 2016, the Compensation Committee approved a new long-term incentive program ("LTIP") for the performance cycle of January 1, 2016–December 31, 2018, while also maintaining the current January 1, 2014–December 31, 2016 LTIP performance cycle. For the January 1, 2016–December 31, 2018 LTIP performance cycle, Mattel granted performance-based restricted stock units ("Performance RSUs") under the Mattel, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Equity and Long-Term Compensation Plan to senior executives. Performance RSUs granted under this program will be earned based on the product of the initial target number of Performance RSUs multiplied by a performance factor based on achievement of Mattel's performance with respect to a cumulative three year EPS target for the performance cycle ("the 2016-2018 performance-related component") and then adjusted upward or downward based on Mattel's total shareholder return ("TSR") for the three-year performance cycle relative to the TSR realized by companies comprising the S&P 500 (the "2016-2018 market-related component"). The Performance RSUs under the 2016-2018 LTIP have dividend equivalent rights that are converted to shares of Mattel common stock only when and to the extent the underlying Performance RSUs are earned and paid. During the first quarter of 2016, no expense was recognized related to the 2016-2018 performance-related component. Compensation expense, included within other selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, related to stock options and RSUs is as follows:
| For the Three Months Ended
| March 31, 2016 |  | March 31, 2015
| (In thousands)
Stock option compensation expense | $ | 2,379 |  |  | $ | 2,799 |
RSU compensation expense | 9,985 |  |  | 8,804 |
| $ | 12,364 |  |  | $ | 11,603 |
As of March 31, 2016, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based payments totaled $69.3 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years. Mattel uses treasury shares purchased under its share repurchase program to satisfy stock option exercises and the vesting of RSUs. Cash received for stock option exercises for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $12.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively.
